WOW that is awsome,
Amazing it does mimic the Bee, What is its behaviour, is it predatory towards bees? maybe I have to google it, to understand why it has evolved to look bee like
C J Hummel - ...
found it , fascinating creature. apart from being a great flier it is also important to the pollination process of plants and flowers, same as the bee. Fascinating
