I was hoping to see a dogfight or some kind of action from these two but they actually got along very well.
The only excitement I witnessed was when the female RubyThroat nudged the wasp out the way a couple times with her beak to sip the sweet stuff.
This series was shot using 8 flashes.
1DIV.....EF 600mm w/ext. tubes....”8" Canon 580EXII flashes

Wow! You were able to really freeze the wings and it only took 8 flashes! Seriously, though, excellent job!

I have a question, excuse my bad, why did you use 8 flashes? is this indoor or outdoor?
