First Bug of 09

I was trying to get a good close up of an azalea, which is pretty hard because there isn't much variation or shading of the color making it look like a shock of cerise. But in one of the blooms, I noticed deep within the pistil and stamen a needle sized thing and figured it just might be an insect. Last summer I learned from the guy who works in the camera shop to get directly beside the bug whose picture you are trying to take. No angles. So here is my first bug of the season.
