I found one of these in the garden this weekend. What would you guess? Is this a good thing or a really bad thing?
The answer is it's a hoverfly and it's a good thing. They help with pollination, and more importantly their larvae eat aphids. I don't think I have aphids which either means they were never there or Mr. Hoverfly and his young'uns did their thing.
