Speaking of flying things!
In the night, in the dark, the white-lined sphinx moth. We still have fireflies, as well, but the bugs deter me from capturing them on camera!
It took me SIX tries, but I got him in focus!
This one was easier.
The, there are the swallowtails: Eastern Tiger Swallowtail and Black Giant Swallowtail.
I captured two in the same few minutes, from atop the back deck!

So many butterflies this year. The population is good. I'm seeing a LOT of bumblebees on my (VERY LATE) allium.
Wonderful captures both on photo and video Jenn! Nature is amazing.
Superb shots Jenn, your white-lined sphinx Moth is an amazing little creature but then the others are also. Thanks for sharing :)
The Swallowtail feeding right IN the day lily, that is a super video. I saw a monarch the other day, alive down here in winter instead of hibernating under a pine tree further north. It was on the Rosemary shrub,Maybe just warming up in the feeble sunshine.
A video would make it easier to identify.
Hummers are fun to watch at their feeders.
Beautiful butterflies! And your videos are so good.
Amazing shots! So beautiful and detailed photos!
beautiful moth and butterfly
