Flowers and insects from the garden

Good Morning,

The sky is gray and clouded outside and the humidity is 96%, it looks like there wil be a lot of rain again today.


But before the rain i went into the garden to capture some photos of flowers and animals in the garden.

Lets start with some flowers

The Lily of the valley or as we Dutch call it Lelietje van dalen the scientific name is Convallaria majalis , i planted these 5 years ago and this is the first time they are flowering in my garden.

the flowers are very small +/- 1cm in diameter and low by the ground so hard to get the camera underneath it and still make a nice picture of it.
