Checkerspot (Nymphalidae)

A nice orange butterfly posing at the bug garden at Reedy Creek in May 2015. My best guess at a species ID is Chlosyne harrisii, Harris's Checkerspot. I like the striped antennae.

Tiny Fly that looks like a bee

This tiny fly is only about 3/16" long  (approx 3 to 4 mm) .
It is sitting on a mint leaf in my front garden.  I took the picture this morning!
