A great shot, Jack. It looks like a hoverfly.

Whatever it is, you got a good shot of it, pretty colours.

Neat shot; nice colors and light. Good of it to stick around while you put the pieces together.
Since I bee no entomologist, I'll take no flyer on an ID.

Amazing shot, Jack! One of the best I've ever seen. The closest thing I could find on the internet was:http://www.cirrusimage.com/flies_longlegged.htm Don't know if that will help id or not. Got my vote!

Love the reflection, Jack. Look more like a fly than a wasp.
