Flat Tummy - _TNY_1599

This female visitor on the great burnet (Sanguisorba officinalis) has the cool name of migrant flatbelly (Xanthandrus comtus).

 

Shooting hoverflies on this flower feels a bit like cheating - I really enjoy the look and texture of the flowers as a background. I have an entire album with shots of various bugs on this flower here: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/albums/72157705562389611/
