And on the drone fly front, a few not so good pictures snatched between showers to show that we do indeed have males, not just the females as posted on the last two days.
The clue is in the eyes – in males, they touch, while in females they're separated.
Two pictures of a male common drone fly (Eristalis tenax) & one of a male tapered drone fly (Eristalis pertinax).
