Dragonfly

First hoverfly of 2019. Episyrphus balteatus

Found some insect nymphs in some bushes today. I don't know the ID but I am thinking maybe Assassin Bug as I saw one eating a fly. These were really tiny!

Two images stacked using Zerene. I have no idea what this insect is, but it was very patient with me.

Keine Ahnung welche Art. Sie schien mir etwas schlanker und eine Idee größer zu sein als die Wespen, die uns immer auf dem Pflaumenkuchen nerven.

A small cold hoverfly, spotted this hoverfly on my Euphorbia blossoms looking a bit miserable. Persuaded it to walk on to my finger to warm up a bit. Focus stacked using zerene
