"HOVER FLY". = Syrphid Fly = Syrphidae.
The adults eat pollen & nectar according to THIS.
My friend from Argentina, Ricardo A. Palonsky, known as RAP on TN has this to SHARE.
However, they lay their eggs as close as possible to an Aphid colony.
In the image you are seeing, it, the HOVER FLY, is making its "approach" to land.
It has almost landed with its GEAR DOWN.
This is a TOUCH DOWN.
Now let the GRAZING BEGINE.
I can spot an APHID. Can you??? Right before my eyes and slightly to the left.... can you "see" its two eyes and its antenna??? No???
Well, I CAN. And a BEETLE too.
Best seen ENLARGED by clicking on right bottom corner of import/s.
The first altered image can be seen HERE.
And, here again is the SECOND ONE. |

Oh! You saw him just at the right moment..It is likened to a space ship going into the void of a quasar. Fantastic. There is truly an outer atmosphere quality Mario.....You also again give a full presentation. this is well planned and I am sure much of your great work would be well received in colleges and university!

Hi Mario.
It is so difficult kind of shooting: in-flight insect picture. Timing and composition are great. Exposure of the white petal is so poor as well as the colou reproduction of the yellow flower heart. However, image of the fly is superb. My best wishes and many thanks for all.
Alexei.
Hello Mario, Namastey!
The photograph of this fly is like a dive bomber heading for target ! Excellent sharpness & details. TFS.
Regards-Subhash
Hello Mario. Very good capture of this hoverfly homing on the beautiful flower. Sharp image of the fly against the negative background. Thanks for sharing and best regards. Jusni
