A couple from Sunday & yesterday.....
A fly, settled on a grass seed head.
Saw this unfortunate creature on the front doorstep, apparently exhausted.
I mixed some sugar-water up & put it close by.
The bee started to lap(?) it up & when I returned to check on its progress, it was gone.
Both K5, 100mm D FA Macro, AF080C ring flash, f16.
Manual focus, handheld.

Latest......
I am reliably informed that the fly is, indeed, a snipe fly, Rhagio tringarius, Gold Star to Neil P!
The mayfly is Ephemera danica.
So there, now we all know!

Now, now, Robert.
That really would be cheating!
Likely to leave bits of leg behind, too!
