Columbine Flower Night Visitor

Didn't see this insect until I opened the photo in Photoshop - not sure what it is - doesn't anyone know?

[Lisa Poland]

That's a bonus, when you find a bug on your flowers when editing them! LOL! No idea what kind of bug that is.

[Bill]

It is a great shot even without the bug. No idea what it is. Your focus was spot on.

[John Durham]

great shot Peter - I copied and pasted the photo into my editor and blew it up 250%. Looks like a wasp of some kind, probably beneficial, certainly a pollinator. I'm a biologist, but no expert in Hymenopterans.

[Tunia McClure]

It's tiny. It won't eat much.

[Peter Dulis]

@jtdurham - thanks John for the input - I have another angle that was probably better

[Kat]

Nice close up
