Taken in my garden on some Feverfew flowers. I saw it flying at first, and thought it was a wasp!

This is the first time I've seen one of these in the garden, so I'm happy to have got this one.

Please view large if you have time..........thank you for looking.

This is what I would call an "if only" shot..................in this case, "if only" I had used a faster shutter speed..!!

Even shooting at 1/2000 sec wan't fast enough to freeze its wing movement...............the nearest wing is beating so fast you can't even see it!

Better viewed large if you want :-)
