Monks Wood 23.8.13

A quick morning visit to see what was flying in the meadows on the South side of the wood, and also check if the Violet Helleborines were out. I just caught them before they went over, so no further chances to get them in better lighting conditions, but I still like the effects I got. Also observed what I took to be parasitic wasps visiting them frequently, but could have been a type of fly. I also saw a Hornet have a nectar from them.
