Flying Marmalade - _TNY_5792
A male marmalade hoverfly (Episyrphus balteatus) en route to what must've been the best tansy flower (Tanacetum vulgare) in existence as it kept coming back to this particular one each time my lens scared it away.
Really pleased with nailing the focus on the compound eyes here.
