Hover fly (Toxomerus)

Fletcher Wildlife Garden

photographed by Barry on a dame's rocket (Hesperis matronalis). The tiny Toxomerus hover flies (Syrphidae) are abundant. We have two species, T. geminatus and T. marginatus. The latter has a yellow stripe along the side of the abdomen but unfortunately I can't see much detail here. However, the photo shows how one typically sees these minute flies.

Absolument superbe avec l'abeille qui butine.
