Reaching - _TNY_8764

On my way to the very small island of Notholmen in Värmdö, Swede, I spotted this rose chafer (Cetonia aurata) sitting on one flower on a cow parlsey (Anthriscus sylvestris) while eating from the next one.

 

I tried holding on to the stem of the flower to support it so that I could get it in focus better, but as I did, it turend out that the one ot was sitting on and the one it was eating were on different stems which made them move apart.

 

Mr. or Mrs Chafer here did not want to abandon her meal however and instead held on like this which became an unusual shot.
