149/366: Hoverfly on Tarweed

Hoverflies are fabulous looking and they often don't care if you're close to them! They commonly hover long enough that you can get their picture, or else they boldly stay on flowers and allow you close access. This isn't always the case--plenty of them are so skittish you barely get a glimpse before they are zooming away. Besides making forgiving subjects, these flower flies are found in many sizes, colors and patterns (including bee mimic), which makes them a favorite!
