The bees flies weren't there when I was setting up the shot. I love the simplicity of the poppies that grow in my area.

A lovely view of the poppy, but I think the insects are Hover Flies.

I like the smaller syrphid fly in flight in at the lower left, nice details.

Well done- the flies really add a nice touch to this pretty flower. Love poppies too. :)
