A Drone fly!

They are called this because they resemble male honey bees, loved how he was almost camouflaged in the brown tones!

Spent the day outside in the garden and my wood, it seems Spring is here; in between the chick feeds enjoying the sunshine and photographing everything that moved or had colour petals.

Here's another ladybird, we still have loads in the garden at the moment, there are more ladybirds here.





And my newly updated gallery

Anchors Ahoy!.

Wonderful shot Cazi, love the fawn colours. And I have not got one single ladybird in my garden, keep looking every day... :o(
