This lady was in residence on a bushy peony, taking advantage of the many rose chafers that were attacking the flowers. I observed her on the same flower for 2 days and did not see her again.
The peonies were located next to steps coming down from a parking area buttressed by large rocks where wild plantstend to take. Open lawn bordered by trees and field.
