Hoverfly, Eristalis pertinax.

Bee aware that Eristalis pertinax is not a bee, it’s a hoverfly – also known as a drone-fly.

Sunrise 05.18 am   Sunset: 08.54 pm Eristalis pertinax is a European hoverfly. Like Eristalis tenax, the larva of E. pertinax is a rat-tailed maggot and lives in drainage ditches, pools around manure piles, sewage, and similar places containing water badly polluted with organic matter.
