Thanks Andy - they are certainly out in force this year. Not one I often see myself so pleased to get it.

Excellent photography

Thanks

Nice. I particularly like the 2nd and 3rd of the bee fly. The St Mark's fly is good too. I've seen quite a few of these flopping around in the past couple of days but I don't think I got a half decent shot of any of them.
