Hoverflies

Ooh interesting, Cal…maybe Eileen, Seaburngirl, will be able to help out here.

Ha! Whatever they're up to they look quite striking.

Lol thanks Kate, I shall PM her and see if she can help solve the mystery 😆

😂 I just noticed something on the plant as I walked past, I thought what on earth is that so I bent down and seen these what look like eyes glaring at me they must of spotted me as they moved around like to say do you mind staring at me 😂😂

they look like hoverflies. There are over 200 UK species so don't know which exactly.
they are 'friends', the adults drink nectar and eat pollen. their larvae eat greenfly etc. so good guys all round.

Over 200 uk species, wow, just Hoverflies is more than good enough for me, thank you for that 😊 Glad to hear they are friends.
