I am also called a Flower Fly and I am a great pollinator. Although I do look like a bee, I am small, and I have only two wings, not four. I do not sting, but you don’t know that, so that helps protects me from those of you who may want to harass me.
I am kind of pretty though, don’t you think?

Our treasure lies in the beehive of our knowledge. We are perpetually on the way thither, being by nature winged insects and honey gatherers of the mind.
