Really lucky with this new bee fly in the garden - Conophorus sackenii. It isn't a rare insect, but it is not commonly observed - only the 6th one on iNaturalist and the first one in the province! It is feeding on Canada anemone, a native flower.

A mid-size bee fly, about honey bee size, sits on the stamen of a white anemone, an open, daisy like flower. It has a dark, hairy abdomen and mostly transparent wings with a dark brown network of veins.

The first Muscari are in flower ready for the arrival of Bee-Fly

Apparently it's #BeeFlyWatch in the UK at the moment. I'm not sure I've ever seen one in real life, but maybe I've just not been observant enough.

They are cute little things https://www.discoverwildlife.com/animal-facts/insects-invertebrates/bee-flies/
