Been a bit quiet

 It's been a quietish couple of weeks on the natural history front.
I have been getting out and looking at stuff, especially at lunchtimes at work but nothing particularly interesting to report on. I'm also let down by not having a great camera so images are hard to come by.
In the garden today tidying up and I decided to beat various shrubs and trees. I have a few pollen beetles to look at, but this beautiful fly came off an ivy covered tree stump
Euleia heraclei I believe. I'm sure I've seen it before, just never bothered to try and put a name to it.

  1. Wing pattern and spiky face minded me of a tabanid. But shape is wrong. What does Euleia do for a living?
