Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Fly mimicking a Wasp on Cow Parsley, near Wilstone Reservoir. Seen on the verge-side vegetation on the track through a wheat field in early August.

So you thought it was a wasp and might be stung. Birds are also confused and leave this fly alone thinking it is a wasp and the fly therefore avoids being eaten.
