Toxomerus geminatus - the eastern flower fly! I love seeing them in my garden, and I’m shocked this one stayed put long enough to let me take these shots

Calligrapher flies / genus Toxomerus
my bestie margined calligrapher visits me every day she is so cool i love her…. her babies are eating all the aphids, there are pupae in development, and those calligrapher flies work hard as hell out there. godspeed.
lazy gardening wins again. i let my dill plant get super huge bc i had more fresh dill than i needed, forgot about it, it’s now covered in aphids. got stressed and avoided it. then i came back today and found two hoverfly larvae chomping the fuck down on the aphids on my dill plant. and a harvestman spider lurking in the lower leaves to nab some easy prey. mother nature provideeeees
