Hoverflies seem to be a bit tamer in the cold weather.

    Nice set. Their muscles might be too cold for flying without some warm-up exercise.

    Thanks Harold.
    They were able to fly- I got them on my hand by raising it underneath them when they were hovering.

    It never occurred to me to try that. I must give it a go sometime.
