Description

This lovely hoverfly circled me for about 20 Min. Checked out my toes, my feet, the legs, both arms, my funny beard... smile me... and finally landed for a hard-earnt rest on my finger. She sure had a crush on me; and on the next day she was already waiting. Yes, we are good friends now. And the best thing is: She just goes bananas when she can pose as close as possible in front of the Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens. I then say: OK... now hold it... cheese... and click... I call her Gerdtrude... sooo sweeet!

...was für schöne Fotos von der Schwebfliege! Und sie umschwirrte Dich? Ich muß immer hinter ihnen herhechten - aber erwischen tu ich sie doch! Die fleißigen Helfer im Garten sind auch zu schön, dass man sie übersehen könnte!!!!
