John Richmond Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Looks like a hornet mimic hoverfly, Volucella zonaria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Myford Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Difficult to tell from that shot, but if it was about the size of a hornet and had a yellow 'nose', it could be Volucella zonaria, a large hoverfly. The eyes seem to meet, which means it is male. Someone else may be more certain: this is just a suggestion. Edit: Too slow again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
