This weekend I heard a buzzing noise in the kitchen at the window. At a quick glance I thought this was a bumblebee that had flown into the kitchen.
On closer inspection it seemed to resemble a bumblebee in appearance and size but appeared to be a very large Fly.
Now i have seen large bluebottle flies before but this fly was huge. its size was very similar to a bumblebee.
I have looked on the internet to see if i could find a picture of it to cross reference but have been unsuccessful.
If you can help identify this insect I would be grateful as i have never seen a fly this large in my life.
I took some pictures and released it back into the garden.
