A Honey Bee facing right on a purple Buddleia inflorescence with a blurred, grey, background.

A Hoverfly head to bottom left wings out to the side, hairy, golden thorax and a yellow and black striped abdomen on the white, with hints of pink, umbel of a Wild Carrot plant. The background is black.

A Honey Bee approaches a blue cluster of Forget-me-Not flowers from the left. The centre of Forget-me-Nots turn white when fertilised so saving the bee wasting time foraging for nothing. The background of the image is a blur of blue flowers and green foliage.

A Keeled Skimmer Dragonfly occupies the centre of the image. It is at rest on a slender plant stem. The green, blurred, background is made up of the stems of rushes and grasses.
