Another selection of superb images and thanks to everyone who entered and congrats to the winners. And thanks, once again, to Gary and Lisa for helping with the voting. The results are:

1st IainLeach - as much for the quality of the hoverfly as the Clouded Yellow!
2nd john starkey - is it possible to get tired of an ant-attended Silver-studded Blue?
3rd FISHiEE - an unusual shot of a male Common Blue and female Chalkhill Blue side-by-side

There were so many good shots it was really difficult to home in on the top 3! Feel free to add your own comments in this thread.

Cheers,

- Pete
