Zooms for Bigger Butterflies

Bigger butterflies may be photographed with zoom lenses.  Ideally, the zoom employed should be long focal length and fairly close focusing.  There are many such lenses available.  Some are cheap. One of these lenses is the Canon EF-S 55-250.  Crumby picked up his at Target for $160.00 new.  That's cheap all righty then. 

But you get what you pay for, don't we?.  Let's see.  Maybe you paid $180 for the lens we are now discussing.  Or even more.  Or even less.  But we all got what we paid for.  Or did we.  Maybe your lens never arrived by delivery truck after you payed for it.  So sadly, you didn't get what you paid for.
Here is a sample photograph, perhaps indicating how this particular lens can do with bigger butterflies.
