Description

Hi Friends, Thank you so much for your enthusiastic comments on my earlier upload! I was such very surprised and happy about that! Again a macro-shot, so my advice, use the zoom for details. This year there are many hover flies, I noticed. When I took pictures of them, such as this, on day-lilies, I saw some 3 and even 4 of them, on one Lily cozy together. I also took pictures of that situation. However, they were less elegant to behold. Here it looks like the hoverfly occurs as a stamen, isn't it? Thank you very much for your visit! Wishing you all a lovely day(-Lily :D)
