Bibio hortulanus
Black wings, yellow abdomen and bright orange thorax.
Feeding on nectar.
Although the last pic is out of focus it does show how tiny it's head is compared to the rest of the body.

Thankyou. I still can't get over how tiny it's head is compared to the rest of it's body!
Beautiful series!
I have never seen beautiful orange fly like this before. Also, they are beautiful pictures.
Nice shots Rachael. There's so many of these around right now. Must be a convention on.
Neat spotting!
