Actually it's a great capture Luis, It's wings appear to be going in a circular motion (although there not), like a helicopter. Stuart

Holy cow, that thing looks big! I think it's a great shot too, it looks like the eye is in perfect focus! and the rest is movement. Great work indeed!!

I think it is a Hummingbird Hawk-moth (Macroglossum stellatarum). I have never seen one little lone had a chance to capture. impressive capture

this is an amazing catch :-) first thougth it would be an humming bird..and is this actually the "tounge" that you can see in this picture ??? --well done --

i rhink yesitis3 is correct, it is hummingbird hawk-moth, there are some other pics of them in Rendo, but this is a very good one. they are incredibly fast in flight, which i think is because their wings have a rigid leading edge (the front of the wing), and very difficult to photograph.

LOL Oh, Luis, you are FUNNY! This is a VERY INTERESTING ............. bug. ;) Fantastic capture! I'll bet he was hard to capture! I would say its some sort of hummingbird bug. But yeah .. like yesitis3 says; I'll bet he is right :)
