Don't ask me what they were doing. One on the right looked like it was feeding on something. Can't make out what that white stuff is on their wings. Too small to be dew I thought. Frost? Pollen?

Good one- guess on either pollen or more fungus infected flies

good one, Troy. I presume they were/are dead?? The large size shows the detail much better.

Nice find Troy, scrawny looking flies mind you. ;)

Thanks Rab and Alby. They were alive, but don't think for much longer.

Its a lovely photo - actually quite pretty.

Well they are both covered in tiny water drops and if you had a frost then I guess frost is a possibility.
