I shot this spot eyed hoverfly (Eristalinus species) somewhere around the meadow field, perching on wild plant. The hoverflies are also called flower flies, or syrphid flies which is often seen hovering or nectaring flower. During the morning time, this kind of fly is a bit hard to catch because it moved quite a lot, that what I faced when I found this hoverfly. I did not want that to happen, I had to find a space to capture this little insect. So here are some pics of the spot eyed hoverfly that I photographed a few days ago in my school garden. Never get tired of dealing with the insect as it is one of my favorite subjects that I like a lot, wherever I found them, I rarely leave them behind. For instance, this insect that was perching on the green leaf in my neighbor's backyard. As I normally do in the afternoon time, I grabbed the camera and went stalking the living things around. I like stalking the insects in the bushes, the shading leaves and the places where they used to play.
