Not a great photo as I was set up with a tripod at the other side of the garden when Mrs AFB noticed this guy. Had to guess at my settings and I was holding the camera with the tripod dangling beneath whilst I chased him around!

They are one of the hardest critters to photograph. Smaller than a hummingbird, and even more twitchy. Cute little dudes though.

I thought it might be a hawk moth but I'm no expert. Yes very speedy.

The actual hardest creature to photograph is Mrs AFB
She had to get a photo done for her driving licence, but that fortunately wasn't down to me!

I'm wondering if Xander can win it. Scottie hasn't moved today. Rory and Im are pressing too.

Found photos in my archives of a trip to Ethiopia in 2013... we stopped at a restaurant southwest of Addis Ababa and there were many monkeys there, playing up to the people, and, essentially begging for treats... they were obviously used to human contact, and appeared extremely docile.

Called because of lightning, finish round early tomorrow, then to the final round.
