Friends? I hear you ask. I see the fly but why friends? If you look under the yellow flower you will see some bubbles, this is "Cuckoo Spit". This is created by the nymph stage of the Froghopper as a form of protection.

The dandelion and the alyssum and friends are in our back garden.

Excellent contrasts on this Steve!

Grasshoppers yes, frog hoppers no! Why actually? Are there any frog hoppers in Poland...I wonder. Must check it as soon as I finish my work which must not be postponed any longer:)

I thought you had finally lost it Caruso, until I followed the Cuckoo Spit link.
Good shot and I will keep an eye on my clock.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
