Pretty little male Thick legged flower beetle feeding on the pollen of a lily, until an ant decided that it wasn't welcome there.
The beetle left rapidly after this confrontation.

Wonderful series - great interaction capture. Ants seem to be able to chase off just about anything.

Thanks to all for your comments.
The last shot was just down to luck, I was about to move off when the ant appeared and it was just a quick grab shot.
