Bee Fly in Flight (+PiP)

Bee Fly in Flight (+PiP)
I was in my garden yesterday afternoon. Having spent some time this year trying and failing to get a Hoverfly in flight it was good to get this Bee Fly instead. I'm still going to try and get a Hoverfly, but I'm quite pleased with this in the meantime.

Just to prove it wasn't a fluke, there's another shot in the PiP! Best viewed large.....thanks for looking.

Thanks Gudrun........much appreciated. It took me about an hour to get a couple of shots I was pleased with, so not too long.
