Hoverfly, Eupeodes species checking out hebe flowers





Comma butterfly on hebe



Mason bee (Osmia sp ?) on dahlia flower- natural light



Beetle in weed flower- guessing it's a female Oedemera nobilis



Ichneumon wasp in rose bush





Soldier fly berris vallata trapped on the kitchen window

All these shots are great, but those 1st two are insane. Just one of the MANY challenges in macro, getting those guys n flight! What a great set of shots!
