CW: colourful bee mimic fly
This handsome person was on a willow support in a pea garden bed. At first I thought it was a much more common Tachinid fly, but this is new to me: Mesembrina decipiens (I think, I'll see if I get any input on iNat), which is in the housefly family -though not a housefly, and clearly a bee mimic. I'm not sure what the adult feeds on (just saw the one, and it wasn't feeding) but it seems larvae likely develop in dung.

There’s been a gif circulating for ages of an angry child grimacing and violently waving a hairbrush. I have just reenacted it in the kitchen, but with a wooden spoon #flies

Ok...i had to go down that rabbit hole and learn about which flies pollinate the cacao tree, after reading that Grauniad article about the UK Flies.
Spoiler alert, nah...I wouldn't do that, read the blog piece it is very good. 😃

TIL....that only flies pollinate the cacao tree. “So if you didn’t have flies, you wouldn’t have chocolate.”
I also learned about the cute bee-fly (what a sweetie)

Northeastern Hammertail
Efferia aestuansPer inaturalist.
I do not see where they get hammer tail from that tail. Anyway, it’s a robber fly. A.k.a. it’s a predator. It catches insects on the wing and when they’re on the ground and eats them.
