A Hana-abu (Syrphidae) in Jochi-ji temple


This Hana-abu seemed to be intoxicated with the sweet aroma and nectar of the tiny flowers of Hime-utsugi (Deutzia gracilis).

In Kita-kamakura, with the coming of early summer, these milky-white flowers bloom simultaneously and flourishingly here and there.
