About No, not spelling bee - Humming Bee - at least that's what we called it. This creature moved like a hummingbird but looked something like a bee. Notice the wing movement and the pointy "front end". Sorry this is somewhat out of focus, but this creature just wouldn't stay still. Do you know what it is?

Hey Great shot! I saw one of those too and we called it a humming bee as well and I looked it up and it actually is called a humming bee. Great job.

It's a type of Sphynx moth (hummingbird hawk moth). I missed one earlier in the year... nice catch! Lucky you... :-)

Peter,

Thanks for the suggestion. I like your version - cropped - better. ~~ Debby

Wonderful Photograph Debby, Great Colors. Very well presented. I know these are hard to get just right. you can make it look better by cropping out some of the more out of focus area... See example

Thanks for sharing,
Your friend, Peter

I think it's a kind of a moth. We have them here too and it's easy to mistake them for a hummingbird. Amazing you could even get close to it.
