Hello steemit!
Il'nitsa-bee-bee (or an oily millet) is one of the babbits. This fly looks like a bee and also eats nectar of different colors.
It was discovered by us in the cottage, under the table. I sat and smoothed the wings with my paws. Now the nights are already cold, so she climbed up to us to spend the night. And in the morning I got out of the shelter, warmed up and went to bask in the sun!
Many insects use disguise for other species or even plants and this fly is no exception. Yellow-black and with hairs. This kind often allows her to avoid attempts on her life. And in our case, coloring saved her. The son decided that it was a bee and did not touch it! He was afraid.
Not a bad disguise, is it?))
When the frozen paws and wings began to warm up, our guest flew away.
As you can see in the photo, the takeoff was a bit awkward))
