    #Eristalis transversa, transverse-banded #FlowerFly (#Syrphidae) is my "spark bug". When I first noticed it in my #Brooklyn backyard in 2009, I thought it was a bee! When I learned it was a #Fly (#Diptera, "two-winged"), I was hooked.

    When I saw how many different insects my #NativePlants attracted, I devoted my entire #Garden to #WildlifeHabitat #Gardening.

    Wow that got the most likes of any of my pachy posts so far, and quickly! So let's keep it going.

    Most of my observations are from my own garden in Brooklyn, NYC. #Harmonia axyridis, multi-colored lady #Beetle (#Coleoptera), is the 2nd most common species. This one is infected with a recently described host-specific #Fungus: Hesperomyces harmoniae.
