Lassioglossum - Sweat Fly

It's only about 5mm in length, as are the white blossoms on which it would feed. I watch for a minute or so as it lit on ONLY white blossoms, ignoring those with more color. Fascinating. Hopefully I'll be able to capture one again when the sun hides behind a close so I can get better detail in the wings.
