Blow-fly sp...
Not sure of the exact species ID on this one (quite common) but when I was taking some shots of the dragonflies the other day this one landed close by and so just grabbed a couple of shots for reference.. Great little beasties..!

Have a good day folks, I'm busy searching through newt belly patterns at the moment so apologies for not commenting as much as I'd like, but have been browsing and enjoying some great posts..

Kind regards,

Brett

Im no macro specialist but this is very nice and tack sharp. Would crop a bit to get rid of the brown o.o.f leave in front of the fly.
