In an english country garden

[Saorsa]

She left out hoverflies



How many insects find their home
In an English country garden?
I'll tell you now of some I know
Those I miss I hope you'll pardon
Dragonflies, moths and bees
Spiders falling from the trees
Butterflies sway in the mild gentle breeze
There are hedgehogs that roam
And little gnomes
In an English country garden.

Very nice combination of an image and words Brian IMO the white flower is a bit too bright and competing with the insect but I think it can be fixed with PP.

Good shot of the bee, Brian.

It's actually Episyrphus balteatus - try finding a rhyme for that!

I'm not over worried about the flower brightness but I would do something about that bright background spot in the bottom right corner.

These are some of the more reliable hoverflies to catch in flight because they remain so steady; but always good to actually achieve a result like this.

Episyrphus balteatus
smaller than a Canada Goose
Catching either while in flight
Takes a little bit of light
