A bee fly is a member of the insect family Bombyliidae, characterized by their fuzzy, bee-like appearance, long proboscis, and their hovering flight pattern. These flies are typically found in dry environments and can be seen around flowers where they feed on nectar and pollen, mimicking the behavior of bees. There are about 4,500 species of bee flies worldwide. Despite their harmless appearance, larvae of bee flies are parasitic and often prey on the eggs or larvae of other insects.
