Clearwing Hawk Moths, also called hummingbird moths, are daytime fliers that feed mostly on teasels and honeysuckles, but they visit all manner of flowers. They fly like hummingbirds, hovering at the flower with their front feet resting on it. I think they kind of look like crayfish - LOL.

The picture was taken in July, 2018, in Green Lanes, Pennsylvania, USA, with a Canon T5i camera and Tamron macro 90mm lens.
Dedicated to the beautiful, flying creatures that pollinate our gardens!
I always wanted to try photography, and my retirement offered an opportunity to do just that. The natural world is my first love. Here you will find pictures of things both large (landscapes, for instance) and small (macro) that catch my eye. I hope the images serve as a window into the natural world many of you don't have the chance to see. In a sense, I'm trying to create a guided nature trail, sharing what information I have about the subject. I'm always grateful for new and better information and welcome all input. Learning is food for the mind and soul. Nothing is ever harmed in the picture-taking process, but some things that wander into our home (like spiders) are carefully removed from the house after they serve as "models"....

Bette Devine
How clever you were to capture the blur of the wings! It's a lovely shot. F
Carol Senske replied:
Thanks! Actually, it happened this ay even with a high shutter speed because their wings beat so fast (like a hummingbird). It does give the effect of fast motion, though. It was a "happy accident" (Bob Ross said that often).
Michael Durst

Mike Nahorniak
Such a great looking moth, incredible colors! f/v
Carol Senske replied:
Thank you, Mike. They are lovely and remind me of flying lobster:>). This red is, in true life, a little more like maroon and he green is just the tiniest bit more like olive. I'm a little better now with trying to get the colors exactly as I saw them. They are really beautiful moths.
