Can anyone get closer with an ID for this nice Eristalini, photographed near Canberra (I think) in Australia, about a month ago (I think). The photos are not mine, but someone who belongs to the same naturalists club as my sister.

Hey Susan,
If my memory serves me well, this should be a female of the common Eristalinus punctulatus!
greetings
