Chng, Loke and I decided to make the best use of an initially sunny morning but very quickly turned grey and cloudy. ;P

At one of our favourite hunting grounds, we found at least half a dozen Yamflies fluttering around, and they seemed to be feeding on some sap on the young shoots of its caterpillar host plant, Smilax bracteata.

Here is a record shot of three of them on the same plant.
