Thank you... Yes they are not easy to photo but it is not too difficult with a good camera, the right lense, many flower beds around the house and a few tips....

Excellent photos! What shutter speeds did you use on those?
From 1 /125 to 1/1000 s . Actually, I used the A mode . f 5,6 to 11.
I used 3 differents ISO (200, 800, 1600)
Here are the details for that pic
speed: 1/640 s. f 11, ISO 1600, exposition correction (EL? Il don't remember how to say that in English)-.333. Spot measure. Lens 105 mm
And for this one
Spot, 105 mm, 1/1000 s, f 11, ISO 1600, corr. Ex. -.333

I would like to had that I used a tripod, but the head was loose. The lense I used has a stabilation mode and I used it.
And one very important thing: there were a lot of nice hummingbird mothes!! So it was not to difficult to have a good subject.

Is this the moth that lays eggs in squash plants?
I don't think so.
If they do they are opportunist since there are no sqash plant around here. Some species prefer plants like Apocynum.
Do they eat squash plants in NY?
