Long time no see because lately I've been a bit busy with the activities I'm doing, but this time I'm back again to greet all my friends who are here, and will try to share some of the macro images that I have, which I really like to photographing unique objects such as insects and various other small animals, here are some of my shots
Some time ago, I have shared this type of animal, and now I have found the same animal again, where its beauty is indeed very attractive, it is a fly that is similar to a bee, it even sucks the honey in flowers, no like other flies in general who like trash or dirty places
Palpada adalah genus dari 85 lalat bunga neotropis dan nearctic atau hoverflies, Genus ini sering berwarna-warni dan seperti lebah. Itu di suku Eristaliini berisi puluhan genera, Genera saudara umum termasuk Eristalis (99 spesies), Meromacrus (43 sp.), Eristalinus (100 sp.) dan Helophilus

Sumber di atas mengatakan bahwa ada 85 spesies lalat lebah seperti ini, dan saya juga pernah menemukan jenis lalat lebah lainnya, yang hampir mirip dengan yang ada pada foto di atas, namun bentuk tubuhnya sedikit berbeda, jenis yang saya temukan saat itu memiliki bentuk tubuh sedikit lonjong
However, until now I still think that this fly is a bee, because almost 100% of every part on its body is very similar to a bee, only its behavior illustrates that this is a fly, some pictures show when this animal makes the typical movements of a fly
It's only the size of an ordinary housefly, the picture above may be able to clearly show the size of this animal, because I didn't enlarge the picture when I took it
He really likes this type of wildflower and I often see him sucking the honey that is in these wild flowers, but I don't know if they also produce honey like bees or they just suck it as food, you can comment if you know about it
After a long time, I'm happy to be back again to share what I have, and for this time that's all I can share, I hope you guys like it and see you next time
Amazing macro photography.
Thank you very much for your feedback buddy
