The Living Forest (127) : Drone Fly feeding on Cow Parsley

Cow Parsley grows mostly all along shaded roadsides in the forest.

The delicate white flowers are very attractive to insects like this Drone Fly, a hoverfly that looks somewhat like a Honey Bee.
It’s called Drone Fly because of this resemblance (sometimes also known as False Bee).

Dutch name : Blinde Bij op Fluitenkruid
