Portrait juvenile snout beetle, made with magnification factor 10 and f/5.6 using a Canon 7D, the Canon macro lens MP-E 65 mm/f2.8 and a Canon 2x teleconverter. Snout beetles, weevils (Curculionoidea) have the name from the extended snout. The antennae are often bent. They are herbivores and can be harmful (reference Wikipedia).

Hover flies, sometimes called flower flies or syrphid flies, make up the insect family Syrphidae. As their common name suggests, they are often seen hovering or nectaring at flowers; the adults of many species feed mainly on nectar and pollen, while the larvae (maggots) eat a wide range of foods. In some species, the larvae are saprotrophs, eating decaying plant and animal matter in the soil or in ponds and streams. In other species, the larvae are insectivores and prey on aphids, thrips, and other plant-sucking insects (source: Wikipedia).
