Wonderful shot!  As others have said, too bad about the bee's colour
being so close to the background, but that's only a tiny nit.
Everything else makes up for it in spades.

Had to post the "Bing" translation - it's more like Monty Python than Monty

Jostein's English is much better than Microsoft's!

Humleflue - Bee-fly 

Below: English text.

Here is one of the insect pictures from previous day. Humleflua is one of the 
snodigste
insektene I know of. It is like a pelsdott with fasettøyne and a sugesnabel too 
long. But
fun to photograph. Relatively fearless, and with the ability to stand bomstille 
in the air
like other hoverfly. I didn't catch the sjans to flush, so I satsa sitting 
quietly by a
mouse and hope that the tussilago farfara stuck in. It is angry with me a 
little bright
straw in the background. They hear the with in the spring, but this image could 
very well
have been a bit without luket had gone beyond the subject. But it bothered me 
not make

Many times, Jeffrey. :-)

This time I observed them around a field of flowers and just sat down.
Seemed to work a lot better, as they eventually made it round to my
side of the patch.

Didn't have to wait too long either. First one came after somewhere
between five and ten minutes.

Thanks everyone for commenting. I agree the background is not good for
this subject. Just a few more days with good weather now, and we'll
have some sprouting green strands in the background. The early spring
palette tends to be very garish here. :-(
