Happy FlyDay Friday! The biggest Robber Fly I’ve ever seen, about 3cm. It was also reasonably photo-friendly, I’d get a few shots in, then it would fly to another nearby plant, and let me take a few more — rinse and repeat about 5 times! Its whiskers have caught the late afternoon sun (it’s a natural light shot), but surprisingly the eye-patch did not blow-out. Eye blow-outs are an unpleasant addition to most natural light shots of robbers and dragonflies. Maybe the low sun angle helped?—————————————— Single outdoor, handheld, natural light shot, with a Sony A7S, 90mm Sony 2.8 lens, F13, iso 4000, shutter 1/250s, RAW-LR6-Topaz Apps
It’s Flyday the 13th! Somehow, I could not let this opportune day go by without one of the pesky arthropods. Happy Flyday Friday.

Hover flies (Allograpta oblique) go by several other names, including syrphid flies, flower flies, and drone flies.
This Hover Fly is on Asclepias incarnata (swamp milkweed) "Ice Ballet". Hover flies are true flies, but they look like small bees or wasps. They are the helicopters of the insect world, often seen hovering in the air, darting a short distance, and then hovering again. These beneficial insects are valuable tools in the fight against aphids, thrips, scale insects, and caterpillars.

Here we are again, Flyday Friday. A late-in-the-season fruit fly, of the family Tephritidae. What I'm curious about are the dozens of tiny insects all over this leaf. No idea what they may be, in fact, I did not even see them until I got home and looked at the image on my computer screen. Anyone have a clue?

Took a turn round the car park on my way home and found this Hoverfly on a leaf. It must have been half asleep as it let me take loads of photos, this and one other came out OK as it was in a really horrible place for a photo.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)
