Monomad: Bloom of Praxelis feeds a hoverfly

While walking in the countryside yesterday afternoon, I saw weeds with their flowers blooming on the right and left of the road. The weeds feed various insects that seek nectar. I saw a hoverfly perched on the Praxelis bloom. It alights there to sip the nectar and then moves on to other flowers. There were plenty of Praxelis plants with fresh nectar, enough to feed a hoverfly and other insects. I caught this little guy, but he wasn't the least bit disturbed. Nectar and nectar, "Yeah, I just want to sip nectar," is what makes him shake off the fear of threats.
