Beautiful day here in Somerset, saw a newly hatched damselfly at the side of my pond, lots of other damsels visiting but best of all after I cut the grass I saw my favourite hoverfly for the first time this year. In flight captures were suddenly on the menu ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
This was my first serious attempt at in flight hoverflies with the Sigma 150mm, it was a bit harder than normal as I needed to get closer but these guys generally don't mind as long as you don't move too quickly.
