Mini Drone?
Strange happenings in the insect world. Yesterday, I saw this fly sitting on a flower with a hoverfly just above it:
The top fly kept its position very accurately:
When the larger fly moved, the hoverfly went with it, keeping the exact same distance overhead:
This went on for some time, moving from flower to flower:
Maybe it is on flower patrol, maybe it is performing a weird mating ritual, but it is far more likely the top one is a secret, self-learning CIA drone studying and emulating insect behaviour for camouflage and cover.
What dou you think?
How strange @ocrdu. shows what I know about insects though. I thought they were wasps! 😂
Excellent photography!
Well, in your defence, they do try to look like wasps.
There you go then @ocrdu. Job done from their perspective! 😁
hermoso.
Amazing clicks
lovely photos
It's the bodyguard!
That must be it!
WOW! Really amazing! It's great that you can notice them and take photos of them in time....
In the meantime, I like the white flowers, really beautiful
Great shot! ;)
Thanks!
You're welcome! ;)
I think you are exactly right and that is blatantly a CIA drone

Ha! I'll go with the conspiracy theory.
Absolutely stunning shots, with beautiful bokeh. I've never seen anything quite like it!
Tip!
Thank you!
CIA it is then.
