At least somebody is eating the cherries

There are a number of fruit trees in the garden, 3 apples, 1 plum, one immature pear and a huge 20 metre cherry tree. In truth I've tried a few apples but most have just fallen and gone on the compost heap. The cherry tree is dropping its fruit everywhere and currently the insects are having a field day, especially the wasps and the butterflies, as you can see here.

Whilst taking the photo I had waps crawling all over me, because unfortunately there are about 20 wasps to every butterfly.

Thanks to Steve for showing me how to take photos like this. When you see his dragonfly shots then you can see what can really be done.
