Tachinid
This is a smaller species of tachinid compared to others but it still has the tell-tale bristles and hunts other flies. I captured this one as it rested temporarily on a leaf of a Hosta.
Life in the Day Lilies
Day Lilies seem to attract quite a variety of insects throughout the spring, summer & fall. With it's side profile, this one seemed like it was posing for me.
A World of Green
This fly stands out against the lush green of the garden.
Calliphorid
Towards the end of the summer, the last remaining flowers seem to attract quite a few insects which is when I got this shot of the calliphorid fly.
Amuse-Bouche
Early in the spring as the warblers are moving north, we get quite a few that go through the garden and demonstrate their proficiency at locating over-wintered insects. This small wasp didn't really seem worth the effort but this Nashville Warbler was happy to consume it before moving on.
