Fly trapped inside a dandelion

JetCrocodile · May 24, 2008

I was performing some heavy works in my summer house (to be more precise around it

) and spot some movement inside a white sphere of a dandelion flower. It appears to be a small fly (common fly?) which somehow got into white sphere od dandelion but was not able to find its way back. In order to see and photograph it I had to help it out.

Even Iafter I remove some seeds it take some time before fly findits way out.

Regards,

Sven

Interesting series- lovely shots- maybe it was trying to hide from you

Hi Sven, what an interesting series,
least he didn't fly off when you got all set up to take his picture.

Maybe he was just exploring?
Least you both got something out of it, you got some really nice shots,
and the fly got release...... all adds up to a great day for all

Many thanks for your comments!

Do not know if fly was just hiding from me or exploring internal part of dandelion but I fell lucky that managed to spot it there!
