That fly looks like he's got a prickly attitude! Still enjoying all these macros Dean.

Thank you much! The hydrangea is attracting all sorts of insects. I think the fly is a Tachinid Fly

Really great pics! How are you getting in that close to flies and moths without them bolting? Are you using a large zoom macro or did you just get lucky, lucky?

Thank you both. @K9Kirk These were taken with my Lensbaby Velvet 56. I love the versatility of it. I am pretty patient and move slowly. I think they know I mean them no harm, and they allow me to get up within focusing distance. Just call me the " Insect Whisperer "
