  It doesn't look like Bee fly for me. The insect is too small in the image and not very sharp, so it is difficult to judge based on the photo. In any case I do not see the typical pointed forward long proboscis. Posted 10 years ago

    At first I thought it was a bee and it is cute bug. I did see it close up and I am sure it is bee fly. Unfortunately, I cannot get a close up photo of it. Thank you. Posted 10 years ago

      Yes, it could be. But for me it is difficult to identify the species. Posted 10 years ago

      I agree with Jivko. It doesn't look like Systoechus vulgaris. The eyes are not so big, the body is not so hairy, the legs are more robust. Posted 10 years ago
