@s4r4h-l.bsky.social#Wildflowerhour Ivy flowers locally are out! Here are just a few visitors; wide eyed ivy #bees, the footballer and batman #Hoverflies. Such a wonderful plant for #pollinators, then berries to feed the birds in late autumn too! #Preston #Lancashire @wildflowerhour.bsky.social @bsbibotany.bsky.social

@sussextangerine.bsky.social1/2 ACE! The 'duck-bill' of the Snout Hoverfly protects an ENORMOUS proboscis, as long as its body. Here it is cleaned, before being folded away and tucked back into the 'beak'. This is in our Rye garden.

@sussextangerine.bsky.socialA bit of rain has led to a bit of an increase in hoverfly numbers. I like this Migrant Aphideater, Eupeodes corallae.

@viccbrown.bsky.socialMy 6th record of Callicera spinolae (Ivy Longhorn Hoverfly) on Ivy in my S. Cambridgeshire garden this autumn and the 3rd male. Unlike the previous 2 males, he wasn't camera-shy, and I got some better photos of this incredibly rare UK BAP Priority Species.

@hoverflyspotter.bsky.social🦟 The Great Nest Heist 🐝
Some hoverflies wear a chemical cloak to sneak inside a wasp’s nest.
