If you look closely you can see how it wraps its mouth parts around an anther in order to strip pollen from it.   Feeding Hoverfly by John Kimbler, on FlickrMy Gallery

Critter gave me time for seven frames, and there was just enough wind to cause me to miss focus on two of them. Lol, the critters never give me time to hold the stems.

Gotta look for them early when they are lethargic, or more hungry than afraid. I think you are right about the pattern. My Gallery
