great close-up toto

excellent photo

Fantastic!

That is beautiful, Toto. Is it another hover fly?

Yes Gee it is another type of Hoverfly. I think that like most insects they are beautiful and so perfect in every little detail.
Thank you all for your comments.

Brill shot.

Fantastic shot Toto......

Thank you both.

Amazing - makes me want to spend time with my Echinops - in this weather? I don't think so!

Thank you Wagger. Is your weather that bad? We have escaped the worst of it here.

Lovely close up so clear too well captured.

Miserable, grey and mizzle in the air - supposed to get better today though.when I woke up it was raining, stopped now so ever hopeful.

Same here Wagger don't let the Essex ones get you down with their weather its they have all the blondes down there so they think they are getting sun LMAO

Sorry - LMAO?

We've got the sun and the blondes. Your just jealous.

LMAO ,Why should I be jealous I dont have to water my garden nature is doing it for me filling my water butt too, I don't have burned grass either, its lush and green, I can take photo s with rain drops on the flowers that make them look like little diamonds and diamonds are a girls best frined, I 'm not jealous of blonde hair either we have our fair share here I wont repeat what my x boyfriend who is a taxi driver says about them when they are driving. :D:D:D:D

I didn't mean to say that blondes were better than others. It was you who mentioned them, not me. Most of the blondes in Essex got their colour from a bottle and I prefer people as they are and not manufactured. I do admit to being a little jealous of the rain you have which is better than any amount of artificial watering.

Its all in good fun Toto I dont take offence I take a gate LMAO I would if I could send some to you but you would have to talk to the witch of Cornwall for that if she can stop the rain she can start the rain lol..

Has she got an e-mail address so I can contact her?

I would imagine so Toto as grand fetes imploy her for her to do her magic as they say lol she preforms a ceremony to keep the rain off for the day of the fete and it has always worked I am sure its a sword spell she does but would nt swear to it.

She sounds like the sort of nutter that I could get on with extremely well.

She is called the white witch

Thanks Morgana.

Your welcome Toto

Gorgeous! I really like your wildlife and insect photos :)

Thank you Limpet. We aim to please.
