ID CORRECTION WELCOMED

Sinuous wing vein identifies Eristalis, one of the bumblebee mimics. Other characters:
- Tarsi (hind legs) are black, not orange, rules out E. flavipes, orange-legged drone fly, and E. oestracea, which is very rare, anyway.
- Range is too far south for E. fraterculus, which is rare, anyway.
- This leaves E. anthophorina, orange-spotted drone fly (the orange spots are not visible in either of the photos).
