I posted the following pics here:

To view the second just click on the next photo ( to the right) in 
the Flies (Set) ...and so on for the last two.

The first is perplexing to me...I don't have any idea what it is. 
Perhaps someone has a rough idea so I can take it from there.

The second is a Robber Fly, the first I have identified although I 
have probably seen them before. Robber Flies are the wolves of the 
fly world, taking bees & wasps in addition to smaller prey.

The next are two pics of an attractively marked Hover Fly. (Don't say 
the scientific name before taking a deep breath!!)
