 It looks like a female Platycheirus, very probably P. scutatus.

 Thanks for that Stephane. The guy on my local website had it down as P.albimanus which I thought was wrong.
If this is P.scutatus it is only the second record for Shetland, and the first since June 1993.

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
