, 1/500 f/6.3, ISO 1250, hand held. Specie: Hemaris fuciformis

Hemaris fuciformis è una falena della famiglia Sfingidi, composta, a differenza di questa specie, da farfalle principalmente ad abitudini notturne. Le Sfingi sono caratterizzate dal corpo tozzo e dalle ali strette e robuste che permettono loro di essere grandi volatrici, capaci di raggiungere anche notevoli velocità; si nutrono librandosi in volo sui fiori senza posarsi, come colibrì. Alcune specie di Sfingidi sono migratrici e, nelle stagioni più aride, si spostano dalle regioni calde verso nord (specialmente dal Nord Africa verso l'Europa). Hemaris fuciformis vive preferibilmente in radure boschive, dove si sposta a grande velocità in ricerca di nettare durante le ore più assolate del giorno. A causa del forte battito delle ali, potrebbe essere scambiata per un grosso imenottero. Ha due generazioni in maggio-luglio ed in agosto, di cui la seconda più scarsa. Tra le piante nutrici della larva vi sono Galium, Lonicera e Knautia. La specie è purtroppo in costante declino negli ultimi decenni.

I was lucky enough to admire and photograph them in my area, but certainly not at your level, dear Fabrizio! :-o :-o :-o
Always many compliments!

Compliments are a must since I do not remember such a subject portrayed so well freehand. The flapping of the wings makes the shot quite dynamic.

In fact, a certain similarity in forms and behaviors is evident with hummingbirds. Wonderful image in activity, not easy the optimal result if we consider the speed of the subject. Remarkable shot Fabrizio.
I wish you a crackling and healthy 2023 for you and for those who love you.
Bye gios ;-)

CONGRATULATIONS VERY HEATED, YOU ARE A MASTER OF CARPE DIEM. With a calculation from gnorante, theoretically, we should stop the beating of the wings with 1/4000/5000sec, it would take the flash or the photoelectric .. :-D
