Hopper and hoverflies

[Hedera]

Rescued this hopper from birdbath:

This is a dronefly, I think

Sunning itself:

Grateful for IDs.

I would say first hoverfly is Eristalis tenax.
Second is Myathropa florea.

Agreed. Can't help you with the hopper though!

Thanks, both! One new one for my list.

Impossible angle for the froghopper, but I think it's just P. spumarius - either that or Neophilaenus lineatus.
