The Clear Wing Hummingbird Moth-I have been waiting to see these unique moths at the Calendar gardens, and during my last visit I was surprised to see more than I did last year.
They are quick like a hummingbird, and can be found across the U.S.
Canon 40D (continuous shooting mode) f18 with the canon 70-300 IS USM lens.
Thank you for commenting, and I hope your weather is as beautiful today as it is here.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

I've seen hummingbird moths in France and they were huge. Wonderful, clear image with great background.

This Image GRABBED my EYE. That's Why I Stopped By. Thanks For Sharing ! Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience
Wow! That's a gorgeous action shot of an unusual moth. Settings and camera gear all pulled together for you on this one Sandi. I might add you were quite quick yourself to capture it.

Life's moments are sweet. I just want to capture all that I can of them.
Very similar to the hummingbird. And beautiful! Outstanding capture for a fast one lady, and my weather was beautiful too!!!

Sandi - Nice close up of this moth. I had a few at the butterfly bushes the other day. My wife had not seen them before. Bright midday sun negated photo ops. Thanks for sharing this one. Thad

Great capture, I have yet to see one this summer. We get them in Northern Ontario also...their wings make a lot of noise when flying,so the first time I saw one, I really was unsure what it was lol.
