| | | Flies for ID please
I`m sorry I haven`t got a clue about these 
This photo was being took of the Small Copper butterfly, then we noticed the flies. They seem to have distingtive yellow bellies? 
& then there`s this one? Is he constructing something? 
Thanks for looking

Afternoon Pam,
The first are Sciarid flies (Sciaridae family) in my opinion. It's one for John ( Oxycera) I think - he specialises in these!
The second is the Marmalade Hoverfly Episyrphus balteatus, a male. It appears to be resting on a mould.
Take care, Jason

Fungus gnats Sciara hemerobioides I think with the yellow.
Agree with E. balteatus, but it's on bird dropping.
