It looks like Chrysotoxum, but it would help to submit a bigger pic and also to tell on which continent your garden is... that can narrow down the identificationWink

I think the photo is just too dark and lacking enough detail for many people to comment. Also, might be better posted to the Syrphidae part of the forum Smile I can move it if you'd like.
