Ah, the poor, misunderstood Marmalade Hoverfly!
Forever being mistaken for a Wasp – swatted away by picnickers, screamed at by jammy-mouthed juveniles, and cursed by many a mistaken rambler. But, unlike the miserable, treacherous, sociopathic Devil’s spawn that is the Wasp – Miss Marmalade wouldn’t hurt anyone, unless of course, you’re an aphid.

SO happy to have found you here online. Love your blog! I’m now following.
Wow, I’m flattered!
Glad I can bring smiles along the way.
I’m sure you know as well as I do how hard that can be for some of us – but this blogging business has certainly given me new focus.
Nice to meet you 🙂
Rather pretty close up!
Thank you!
It’s certainly prettier than the spider from a couple of days ago 🙂
Lovely shot!
Thank you!
Wow … I can’t believe how sharp these photos are handheld. Really great.
Hey, don’t forget … ONE-handheld!
lol!
Thanks for sharing its name as I have seen it but not known who she is. I’ve always suspected there’s masquerade somewhere with little missy here 🙂
Pretty, isn’t she?
I must admit a soft spot for this one.
