Lover's Snack, Pt. 2 (Cropped Version) - _TNY_8487C
A mating pair of green-veined whites (Pieris napi) on a deep magenta flower on the oregano (Origanum vulgare) in my mother-in-law's garden.
The female was most definitely in charge here and flew around with the male meing carried along backwards. Here she decided she needed a snack to keep going and went for some oregano nectar.
This was originally shot in portrait mode (here: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/53877745522/), but since I have a very high-resolution camera, I did a landscape crop here also.
