Friendly Hoverfly

I love hoverflies, they're very cooperative when you want to take a photo. This one was quite happy to land on my hand when I held it up and posed nicely for me :)

That's brilliant Keith! I have never seen one do that! I managed to get quite a good shot of one hovering a few years ago, but this is very sharp for a one handed take! Well done.

All of the above. And it seems to have a matinee-idol profile.
