, 1/1250 f/10.0, ISO 800, hand held. Specie: Macroglossum stellatarum

La sfinge del galio o sfinge colibrì (Macroglossum stellatarum (Linnaeus, 1758) è un lepidottero appartenente alla famiglia Sphingidae, diffuso in Eurasia e Nordafrica; è conosciuto anche col nome di farfalla sfinge o sfinge colibrì. Quando attiva, passa con estrema rapidità da un fiore all'altro senza mai posarsi: resta in volo librato su di essi per pochi secondi battendo velocemente le ali ad una frequenza di 70-80 volte al secondo, al pari dei colibrì più piccoli e protendendo la lunga spirotromba verso i fiori per suggere il nettare, analogamente ai colibrì. Ha abitudini diurne e crepuscolari. Vola nei mesi caldi dell'anno e si posa solo per riposare dopo il crepuscolo, ben nascosta dalla vegetazione, coprendo con le ali anteriori le posteriori e lasciando scoperto l'addome.

Hello Federico and Fabrizio, thanks for the compliment, in fact it is not an easy subject to be photographed, stands still for a few moments and you have to be very quick to frame it and focus. Good day, hello Fabrizio

Hello Claudio, thanks for the positive comments, as you say it is not easy to photograph this insect standing still for only a few moments when you have to be able to frame it and put it on fire. Best wishes, hello Fabrizio
