Hover fly (Helophilus sp.)

Yet another hover fly. They are certainly abundant at the garden from spring right through fall, and the variety of hover fly species found here is remarkable. Many are bee and wasp mimics, and the most intriguing are the bumblebee mimics which are dead ringers for the Bombus group.
