Also called Eristalis Tenax. The female's eyes are separated, whereas the male's meet. They are a bee "look-alike" and can easily be taken for the real thing!
As I was down taking the other shot I posted Dave had his drone flying in the sky to catch the Emerald Isle coming out of the channel and heading back to Beaver Island. Photo by Dave.
Eilean Donan Castle, Scotland
A different view of the castle. I'd been warned so I knew that between 9am & 6pm you are not allowed to fly a drone near the castle but I have to commend the owners for not putting a blanket ban on drones. I suspect this way people are more likely to obey the rules and come early or late like I did.
Again I hope to reshoot this in Oct or March and think sun set may be better. It is an epic view though!

We went for a ride today and Dave took this with his drone down by Elk Rapids. Trees are just starting to turn white. I thought it was a pretty shot of this nice farm.
Drone Fly (Eristalis tenax)
I have seen more of these Drone Flies so far this season than I have seen in previous years.
Back after I pick up the kids from school, for the last time this year, six weeks of Summer holidays start now!
Captured with my Drone - DJI Mini Pro 4; West coast of the Island; limits of Mellieha.
Thank you for your time to view.
Dave flew his drone and captured some images from the west side of the Lighthouse which is incased in ice. This is from the side the waves hit the most. That's allot of ice already but Friday we are to reach up to 45* and if we get some sun this ice will be falling off.
Drone shot of the Hohenzollern Castle in Germany.
Thank you very much for your comments and faves, very much appreciated!
Drone show at Han river in Seoul. Never saw one of those before. Interesting but probably better for video than photography.

This one was a bit high up, but I liked the way it looked against the blue sky! HFDF have a great day and weekend ;0)
The Dart River feeds into Lake Wakatipu. You can see some holiday makers who were enjoying jet skiing from the right bank. Thanks for visiting summer down under.
My husband Dave took this DRONE shot.
I'm standing on the end of the pier where I took the previous picture.
Far, far away this train can be seen in the Salzach valley on one of our walks. I had seen this photo point from further down in the valley but couldn't find the point it was taken from, it didn't come from some photo site, it was in a touristic brochure overlooking Pfarrwerfen .. probably taken with a drone.
In the end I thought this was good too, a DB 101 with the white IC cars fitted well in the viewfinder with a mighty mountain range in the background.

Location: Drone Haven
Backstory: Drone Haven, a city long abandoned by humanity, stands as a haunting testament to the fleeting importance of humankind in the grand narrative of nature. Rusted skyscrapers rise from fractured earth, their decayed frames wrapped in vines and moss, bearing witness to nature’s quiet reclamation. Faded posters and graffiti whisper a warning from a forgotten era: “The End is Near!” On the city’s outskirts, a survivalist camp briefly clung to life. Dreamers and pragmatists built it as humanity’s final stand, cultivating gardens and creating shelters in defiance of the inevitable. Yet disease, dwindling resources, and discord proved stronger than their resolve. The camp fell silent, overtaken by creeping greenery, its remnants a poignant symbol of resilience overshadowed by decline. At the city’s heart lies the ruins of a once-famous butcher shop, its walls weathered and its windows shattered. Moss softens its rusted fixtures, and vines snake through every crevice. Outside, the grim message echoes: “The End is Near!” This decaying relic serves as a stark reminder of human hubris and the fragile nature of survival. Amid the ruins, drones roam like spectral caretakers. Left by their creators, these machines continue to perform their programmed duties, planting native flora during their annual Echocycle rituals. They maintain Drone Haven as a paradox—a city simultaneously embodying human ambition and nature’s enduring dominance. Yet even the drones are not eternal. As creations of humankind, they too are bound by the finite nature of energy. Like their creators, they will eventually exhaust their resources and cease to function. This juxtaposition—humanity’s ephemeral existence and its legacy in the mechanical species it forged—underscores the fragility of all things, natural or artificial. Drone Haven whispers a layered tale: a reminder that humanity, for all its self-importance, is but a fleeting presence in the face of nature’s vast, enduring cycles. In its rusted beams and flowering vines, it reflects on collapse, resilience, and the inescapable truth that all energy is finite and ultimately consumed.
Sunrise a few weeks ago and a little inversion in the Dove Valley down towards Hartington and beyond.
Decided to send the drone up for this lovely angle down the valley.
