Hi all!

Am I right here with a female Eriothrix rufomaculata? Approx. 8 mm long.

Interesting (for me at least) behaviour: It hid away from me walking from the flower under the leaves below and only moved a few centimetres (to a better position for taking pictures), when my finger slowly approached. After some time back on top of the flower, again walking.
