    Wow, I think those are great. I have only seen those at night and it never occurred to me to try and photograph one.

    They look to be as large as a hummer anyhow. Great shots John, love the flight shots. clap.gif

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    That's amazing, my wife and I were at a garden yesterday and saw one of those, I just had the Canon kit lens with me so I grabbed a couple shots to identify it when we got home. All I had to do was wait a day and you did it for me, we had never seen one of those before.
