Description
The Hoverfly Volucella zonaria in my garden
Their larvae live in the nests of social wasps that build in tree cavities, including the Hornet. They are scavengers amongst the debris in the bottom of the nest cavity.

Must grow some Helichrysum next year they seem to be a hotspot for bugs.

Excellent capture Andrea. I have had a visit from another one today and have not down loaded yet.

Gorgeous pic Andrea
Excellent capture Andrea.
Marvelous clarity, what a great shot! Those flowers seem quite popular with the insects in your garden.
Cracking shot Andrea! The simple structured flowers have brought you some real delightful visiting bugs. I bet you sit hours beside them with your shutter finger ready !
Stunning capture Andrea. Is that the same specie of visitor there in the out of focus background? God bless.
A very pretty flower although I don't imagine that's why they are attracted to it. An outstanding capture.
amazing work
Two incredible photos and zooms. Have you ever been stung?
Pin sharp, and perfect dof. I love the orange Echinacea dancing in the background.
Fabulous capture!
The image, as previewed on this page is just stellar in clarity - a perfect image!
Full size zoom is nearly twice the size and I have to scroll across - :( and quality is reduced.
Really excellent POV
