I didn’t see these guys for years. It’s a bee flies or humblefly. They were dancing each spring above the forsythias. But, for years I wasn’t able to see any. The owner of another blog posted about them a few days ago. So, I got reminded to my own experiences with them. It was a really hard job to catch one with my camera.

Take care!

What do you do? Throw the camera at them until they stick? 🤣 I’ve tried to photograph them too and miss.
😊 thanks, Sherry! You’re right, it’s not easy and you need a lot of tries. Especially, when using a long focal lens.
I’ve never heard of them before … 🙂
