I don't think I've ever seen or heard of a Hummingbird Moth before. Interesting features on this moth ... focus is a bit soft, but I'm enjoying how the flowers show through its wings. Great find & capture Doug.

I'm like Sherree, I do not think I have seen these before. What an amazing image. Might be a bit soft but the vivid colors are so beautiful and love those translucent wings. I'm looking forward to more of this one. ♪ ♫ :)Tigs♪ =^..^=

Had a bit of a time getting focused here.It was almost dark
and had to use a flash on 1/4th power.
Thanks for the kind words Friends
