Can anyone tell me............
Hover fly. I thought this was some kind of wasp trying to look like a bee.
I'm not sure but think this is what I see at my humming bird feeder. I don't
remember ever seeing them. My questions, do they sting or bit? If you have
a reaction to stings, do you have to take care with these little guys too. Are
they aggressive? How common are they to WI?
