I seldom shoot hover flies, but this one was rather interesting for me. Size 8-9mm I believe. It was flying low among blocks of a cut down aspen tree lying in water, with a rather high-pitch buzz and sometimes touching the water's surface (laying eggs maybe?). Permitted me to take just one picture, though.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
