Long tongued hoverfly.

Rain in the night but a sunny day.  Not that I’ve been out in it apart from the garden.  The last of the hoverflies were feeding on the last of the echinops so  I made the most of them.  Washed clothes and should now be able to leave the washing machine alone till the weekend thank goodness. Researched neutral density filters and ordered a not too expensive one with good reviews.  Last night I was aghast to discover I had no protective UV filters on the lenses for my mirrorless camera. Ordered some and they came today so I gave the lenses a good clean and fitted them immediately.  I’ve also bought a polarising filter and am now kitted out for my holiday at the end of the month.  Spent ages trying to find a good belated email birthday card for a friend. I am so forgetful now.  Eventually found a passable one and jumped through all the hoops. It may have gone but I’m not sure. I’ll have to wait and see if they confirm.
