Thanks, Jake. Burst shooting helps -- a lot. I don't know how many frames I've tossed out to get one good insect in flight. This was shot in sunshine only. I do use a twin macro flash sometimes.

Fantastic capture! Love how you got the bee in mid flight and so sharp. Not an easy task. What do you use for lighting?
