Many thanks

Ahhh, very nice Foto. I agree with Theo - unmistakable, and one of my favourites too - when you see these flies you know spring is here and the tach season has started! Smile

I just noticed that the pictures are not from the same specimen.
The middle one is a male, actually.
For the record
