Tiny Tuesday- Hoverfly and Tiny Drops

I went to Brookside Gardens today specifically to get some Dahlia shots, but the section of the gardens that contains all the flowers I love to shoot was closed for pesticide application.  Instead I spent some time in the butterfly house and in the butterfly garden where I got quite a few shots of this little hoverfly.  I have  posted a close-up and one in flight in the extra. They are only about 1/4 inch (7mm) long, so these shots have been significantly cropped. 

Many thanks to DBifulco, our host for Tiny Tuesday this month and be sure to have a look at all the entries.
