Ah-ha!
That is a great suggestion I hadn't even considered, Bob. I'll most
definitely look into that option and can't believe I hadn't considered
it before.
Again, thank you for the suggestion!

Walt,
It is a nice start, especially the 1st.
Don't look for a 500mm, instead
try a 200mm with an extension tube.
It lets you get very close that way.
Regards, Bob S.

I stepped out into the oppressive heat yesterday afternoon with the
K20D/Promaster 70-300 and spotted a butterfly fluttering around the trusty
ol' mimosa tree. Being somewhere between 95-100 degrees, it was very, *very*
active and tough to capture. I did manage to get a couple of presentable
shots out of about 10 attempts. Here they are:

They're not world-beaters, I suppose, but I was pretty happy that I was able
to even get the thing in the frame.
Comments/suggestions welcome as always.
