Garden Visitor... by vignouse

Garden Visitor...

Today has been much like yesterday weatherwise - unseasonably warm and sunny - and once again the garden attracted lots of six-legged visitors... so many that I was spoilt for choice. Our camelia bush was very popular with the visitors and I counted a dozen different varieties of insects on or around it - I've chosen this fly simply because I've never seen one like it before.
I does have a luminescent look about it - but its a fly! I would say the best approach is : 1. Photograph. 2. Swat it!

What a beautiful capture of this unusual fly. Without a close up like this most of us would have no idea of its beauty. FAV

Our warm weather the other day has brought out some flies (and frogs, I can hear them). Hoping the flies aren't as bad this summer.
