I have heard the saying of flies after honey but I always think of them after the sugars on our plates. Do they really go after honey in flowers? Apparently as my dianthus was covered.
Come join in on the fun of Monday Macros with Heaven’s Sunshine and share the fun with macros.
And as a reminder for the start of the day, always find ways to be kind. A smile, hug or sweet hello.

Flies can be annoying, but also fascinating to watch. I’ve seen lots of smaller ones on my flowers this summer. Your macro photo is great!!

Your post reminded me of something my mother always used to say to me: “You’ll catch more flies with honey than you will with vinegar.” I always told mom I didn’t want to catch flies! 🙂
