Yea, um, It's a, I really don't know. I've been looking at some sites for it, but no luck yet. Nice spider too!!! And I do think that's a hummingbird moth. I've never seen them in my area. We have the Clearwing moth around here though.

Thanks for your reply Jesse. I was just yanking your chain a bit about the caterpillar (sorry). I have no idea either.
I've only heard of and never seen a hummingbird moth in person. But if I were to label any moth as such, that seems like the one. Clearwing moth? Interesting. I just went looking for a pic and they are neato! You have those near you? Cool...

Clearwings are in my area in early spring. Seems once the bees show, they leave.
I guess I'm really becomming a bug man. This was with my wife's P&S, and the light sucked, but I figured if I moved, it would leave.

Wow, you don't have to go looking for subjects to shoot, they come to you!
Nice color contrast between your shirt and the dragonfly.

Not bad guys, hopefully here in a couple weeks I'll be able to start contributing to this thread. The bugs are just starting to wake up here and come next week B&H and Adorama will be robbing me when I order some additional gear .

I don't necessarily use a fast shutter speed. You would be surprised how much movement is caused by using the shutter release on your camera. My remote is broken now and without it is annoying. Get a cheep wired remote shutter release. You should be able to pick one up for about ten bucks. You can also increase the ISO some, but remember if you have to crop the pic much the grainyness, (is that a word), may show more.
The other thing to remember is not to try to be too stiff. Relax. Most people shake more when trying to be perfectly still.

This is one of my favs! I've been trying to get a bumblebee pic for 2 years now and can't get one I like, not for lack of trying. I have a bazillion dragonflys living next to the river and a few "good" pics of them. The Bee evades my camera though

That is a globular springtail I believe, its a springtail of some sort for sure I'm not certain on the globular part. I was kinda amazed at how many there were, without looking through the viewfinder I could not see them.
