Fly on Campion

Lots of flies around today  -  house flies and hover flies around the flowers in the garden.  My Red Campion is looking very splendid at the moment. The rain early this morning followed by hot sun has made them very appetising to flies like this one - it stayed there for ages. I waited for it to spread its wings so I could capture them, but it wasn't in a hurry to do that so I gave up because my back was beginning to protest!
