Greater Bee Fly (Bombylius sp.) I&#039;m terrible at action shots, but here was my attempt to get photos of these quirkly little bee flies that swarmed us yesterday morning! There were about 10-15 of them hovering around us and even approaching our faces! They were particularly curious about brightly colored (blue and green) tarps that we were placing over our camper.<br /> <figure class="photo"><a href="https://www.jungledragon.com/image/61676/greater_bee_fly_bombylius_sp.html" title="Greater Bee Fly (Bombylius sp.)"><img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/media.jungledragon.com/images/3231/61676_thumb.jpg?AWSAccessKeyId=05GMT0V3GWVNE7GGM1R2&Expires=1759968010&Signature=VHt3X%2F2Ws%2BWrW1gLdkY9nHhMvz0%3D" width="200" height="134" alt="Greater Bee Fly (Bombylius sp.)
