    How beautiful! And cracking macro Lisa, one is drawn immediately to that enchanting little proboscis in its coiled position. So sweet. Posted 6 years ago

      OH, that means so much coming from you, Ruth! <3

      I was just glad to get some okay shots of this cutie. This was at the tail-end of a very sweaty hike, so I was in a hurry to get back to my car!       Posted 6 years ago

      35-40mm maybe? So small, but not "tiny" per se. Posted 6 years ago
