Lovely series- the jacket makes a good background !
Think the fly is a small Tachinid - Siphona sp. - has that interesting folding proboscis.

Thanks Brian, I also like the BG on this too. Initially thought of possibly coaxing the wasp onto something else but after the first shot I thought, nope it can stay on there

Cheers for the fly ID too.

Last one in particular Ian looks really good.
