cracking shots Clarky! I could look at them for ages.
That lttle guy likes his meat rare doesn't he?
when the sigma arrives and you realise you can take thes shots from your sun lounger, just PM me I'll send you my address for the 100mm, mark it as a gift please, so I don't have to pay any tax. Thanks mate.

Thanks Dan, I'm not sure what those little flies are, I have never seen them before but they were certainly abundant and looking for a free meal Excellent shots Clarky. I like the cheeky little flies coming in for a free meal.

The first thing i thought was they are cadaver flies but i'm not sure that is right.

Remind me of fruit flies, but their eyes are usually red (too many late nights ).
Can't say I've looked at too many headless bees here to know if there are any tiny flies on them.

You need too look harder Remind me of fruit flies, but their eyes are usually red (too many late nights ).

It was interesting to watch him eating, the way he was holding the bee in his arms, it looked like he was eating a giant souvlaki
