Hi,

though it surely cannot be identified to species level, it would be interesting if H. bimaculata group can be confirmed at least.

It was hovering there at least for 4 minutes (almost without changing position), so I could only take pictures while flying (in fact only the fly did). Don't know what he was looking at (me?) or waiting for (me going away?).
It was the first Hybomitra I could observe and maybe it's no unusual behaviour?

Thanks in advance for any help.
