FliesFrom South Africa …
Hello,
I just found your site. It’s really nice and informative – well done! I hope this picture will be of some interest. If you look closely, you will notice that there seem to be three insects involved: a robber fly (I presume), a bee (honey bee?) and a tiny "bee-like" insect. I would be most interested to hear what you make of this.
Regards,

hi John,
Well, you most definitely have a Robber Fly feasting on a Honey Bee. The other insect looks like some typ of Fruit Fly, but we are not certain.
