Looks like a bee, but this is mimicry.
The large bee-flies (Bombylus major) are always fun to watch. Their proboscis appears to be almost as long as the fly itself.

Another few #DailyPhoto(s) from my wander around #MerthyrMawr#Dunes this weekend; A #RedKite, Flowering #Blackthorn, A #DarkEdgedBeeFly (#BombyliusMajor) and the #Flowers of an #Ash tree. Not the greatest quality photos, but interesting subjects... I hope

The second clip shows a Honey Bee disturbed on Ceanothus by a Dark-edged Bee-fly.
Spring has started quite slowly: still relatively few nectar sources and daytime temperatures need to be a bit higher too.2 of 2
