Description: This hoverfly repeatedly slowly lifted its middle pair of legs. It would hold them there for a few seconds before returning to a resting pose and then repeating the movement. Anyone else seen this or have an explanation? Milkhall Pond SWT reserve, Midlothian, Scotland NT241573. Date: 26 June 2013, 13:20. Source:
