Nectaring Hoverfly

Been a while since I've had time to post an image, busy with work and a lot of other stuff.  Anyway here's a recent image from the backyard, a hoverfly nectaring on the common weed Senecio madagascariensis.

Beautiful sharp face, eyes, and forelegs and wonderful flash lighting. Love the angle on the subject.
