the flower and the insect-EXPLORE!

I think this is what some of my contacts call a Hover fly getting that very last bit of nectar from this dying flower...this innocent looking bee like insect actually makes his home in the honeycombs of bees...lays her eggs in the cells with bee larvae feeding off of them...not good!!!
