Hovering in New Zealand

There we were, parked by the side of the road. Completely surrounded by lakes, snow covered mountains, blue skies with puffy little white clouds. And there are so many beautiful wild flowers - colourful and gorgeous.

But what especially caught my eye was this delightful little hoverfly. So I very quickly changed from the 300 zoom lens to my trusty 100 macro lens, and bless his little heart he waited for me!

Bigger eyes.

My suggestion is that if you want to see the scenery, head over to the Rowers Blip which will be up later this evening.

I have to say that we were sad to leave Wanaka. Our Blip meets there with The Boss and Bossess, Tuss (of course) CyclingGranny, PaulaJ and HighPike, were just sensational

thanks so much to every one who commented, hearted, starred and congratulated me on my 200th blip day. It's a bit hard to do much commenting at the moment, but I will get back to everyone eventually. I love Blip - and you guys are just the best!
