You did well, Henk. My K5 & HD 55-300 screw drive is hopeless, even for

It is quite a challenge to shoot these fast moving hummingbird
hawk-moths jumping around in a field of flowers.
It would be easier with better focussing gear than my K-70/ 55-300 PLM
combo, though the difficulty is to get it into view.
One trick sometimes is to focus on one flower and waiting on a visit
of this moth.
At least I know that over here soapwort is their favourite flower.
Here a few of my attempts so far this season.
