We walked down to the Broadway Bridge to see if we could get a glimpse of the movie, but no. Then we saw this helicopter with a camera on the front fly over and hover around the bridge.
Hoverflies, sometimes called flower flies or syrphid flies, make up the insect family Syrphidae. As their common name suggests, they are often seen hovering or nectaring at flowers; the adults of many species feed mainly on nectar and pollen, while the larvae (maggots) eat a wide range of foods. In some species, the larvae are saprotrophs, eating decaying plant and animal matter in the soil or in ponds and streams. In other species, the larvae are insectivores and prey on aphids, thrips, and other plant-sucking insects.
Aphids alone cause tens of millions of dollars of damage to crops worldwide every year; because of this, aphidophagous hoverflies are being recognized as important natural enemies of pests, and potential agents for use in biological control. Some adult syrphid flies are important pollinators.
About 6,000 species in 200 genera have been described. Hoverflies are common throughout the world and can be found on all continents except Antarctica. Hoverflies are harmless to most other animals despite their mimicry of more dangerous wasps and bees, which serves to ward off predators.

A little hovering along the way... the breeze is a little strong, but very nice.

This is our typical weekly neighborhood walk to the corner stores. We are demonstrating how to live healthier, how to eat great for free, and how to levitate.
We had bbq, sushi, salmon, roast beef, salads, ice cream, terriaki, cannoli, fine coffee, and so much more!
Total cost: $0
Happy Floating!

While walking around in some coastal wetlands looking for good sceneries to capture, I had luck to spot a small bird flying around in high grass, catching insects. I got him in mid-air, hovering over his nest, just moments before he disappeared again.
Nature's hovering machines.
Catching up on some old photographs from an awesome trip in January to Magadi and Anashi.

Kingfisher hovering ready to dive for fish. Trying to get a fine art picture, using a couple of textures. The background was from trees opposite that were turning colour in the Autumn.
I love photographing these little guys. They are very patient when busy inside a flower, and if spooked they will generally come back if you are patient.
I've not uploaded much lately, but that's about to change as i've remembered i own a camera. Here is a Hover fly.

Check out the 'Stribog' - alien hover vehicle, which combines functions of hover tank, mobile mortar and antiaircraft gun and uses antigravity technology to function in any enviroment.It features:
cannon which is activated simply by pressing the top part of Stribog's front armor
2 slick missles (missle shafts are opened with levers at the back of the model)
2 rotatable chemiballistic guns
movable 'wings', side radiators and multiresonators which are those round pieces sticking from Striborg's top (they serve as antimissle system by destroying incoming projectiles with resonance)
openable cockpit that fits 1 minifigure
mini stand to imitate hovering
'Stribog' was built as a toy in the first place. Thats why it has strong but simple skeleton based on technic bricks and sticks and it features many functions.
Well I think its a Hover Fly if I'm wrong and someone know what it is can you tell please...Taken down by the riverside
