foraging flies

            Small, long-legged flies foraging on a flower of the genus Rudbeckia or Ratibida (Asteraceae or Compositae), which are known often as black-eyed susans or coneflowers. I believe that this specimen is Ratibida pinnata, known variously as globular coneflower, pinnate prairie coneflower, yellow coneflower, drooping coneflower, gray-headed coneflower, weary susan, or yellow prairie coneflower.
