Wow, those things move fast.

Looking at some pictures I took with a shutter speed of 1/2000s their wings are still seriously blurred. Eyes and bodies sharp enough you could cut yourself on them, wings blurred. They are incredible creatures!

Yes, I am always transfixed when I see one hovering around some flowers, sounding like some large bee. :)

Do you have a lot of them near you? I saw one last week and was surprised because I haven't seen any where I live now. I used to see them when I was in my pool at my old house. They loved to scare me when I would swim! LOL They would get way too close.
