Oct 31 ID event - Four-speckled Hover Fly

We're happy to announce another online meeting next week! Here are the details:

The Zoom meeting will open at approximately 4 P.M. EST on Sunday the 31th.

The plan is to focus on the Four-speckled Hover Fly, Dioprosopa clavata. We'll start by taking a quick look at guide materials. After that, we'll spend most of the time individually going thru observations while discussing questions and interesting observations.
