Cool. Good to know! :)
Thanks. I was really pleased with it. They were very photogenic. :)
This is certainly a Rhagoletis species but I agree with @dandoucette. The eyes are not the same and the thorax is the wrong colour. Rhagoletis completa doesn't have the bronze metallic colour. That said I can't seem to find a closer match and it is very close. :)
This is probably Bombus pascuorum (the common carder bumblebee).
