Lovely shots Mike, hoverfly looks a little more like Eupeodes luniger to me though but not 100% sure.

Thanks Alby, I think it is Eupeodes luniger as well after some research, now amended.

These are really good, I tried to get a decent shot of a hover fly today but didn't manage anything as sharp or as good as this.
Well done
