loonyowl [2012-03-31 17:02:59 +0000 UTC]

WOW! This is great!
It's doubly great in that they fly so fast and so are really hard to photo. I once tried taking one but your picture knocks spots off mine - I was only just getting into photography back then.
Well done!

I've seen one of these interesting creatures before. At first we were thrilled that a hummingbird decided to come out when we were so close to the flowers. Second look we realized... NOPE! Not a hummingbird, baha.

Very nice capture!
