Good day all , just before the rain started i went in to the garden to see if i could spot some interesting things for macro photogrpahy this morning.
i found this small hoverfly resting on the tip of a verbena leaf, it looks like a
Platycheirus albimanus , but i could be wrong.
Unfortunetly i wasn't able to get a good top side picture for determination.

I'm not sure yet what the scientific name is, if you do know the name let me know in the comments. At the moment i think it's the Stictopleurus abutilon.
