Robber FliesBee Mimic and Unknown
Hey guys,
I know you are swamped but I had to share a photo I took this month on Skidaway Island, Georgia. I came across this amazing robber fly that appeared to mimic a bee.

Hi Anthony,
Based on the yellow facial hair and black abdomen, we are identifying your bee mimic Robber Fly as a Virginia Bee Killer, Laphria virginica.
