Species - 29 Episyrphus balteatus

Another cracking hoverfly, a smaller species this time and very common. It sometimes migrates to the UK in large numbers. This one has a slightly damaged wing, which is interesting. Although I say it myself, this is a good photo and shows how good the camera set up can be in bright conditions, allowing narrow apertures and good DOF.
