Seem to have been a lot of bees around lately ... and they do make fascinating subjects !

Great shots Kevin! It's a Hover fly, but that doesn't make any difference on the quality of the pics! Great eyes....!!!

I thought these were the Hoverflies ?

Are they both hoverflies ? The eyes are quite different on these.
