Flowers and a fly

Snowdrops always lift my spirits when they appear.

Galanthus nivalis (snowdrop)

The face of a shy flower

First hoverfly of the year, its thorax dusted with snowdrop pollen

Bright yellow Eranthis hymenalis (winter aconite)

A view inside Eranthis flower; note the funnel-like nectaries
