This Insect Is a Wasp Imposter

Flies trying to be wasps💀

Can the hoverfly still sting you?

Where I live we call these good news bees because if they take interest in you something good is supposed to be coming your way. But if you kill one it's supposed to give you bad luck

This is not even a wasp it's a hornet. If you look the wings there to big and short. Wasps have very thin a long wings and just two of them.

Fun fact lots of mainly harmless animals look like dangerous animals to protect themselves from predators ❤

I was in 4th grade or smt and there was a quiz and one of the questions was is this a wasp or a fly with a picture of a hoverfly and I was the only one in my class that chose that it was a fly and I fr thought that I was him bro 💀

This is why this is my favorite animal

Do they sting??

He reminds me of mature version of steve from Blues clues 😅

I once came across one of these things when walking the dog. Checked it's wings, and swatted it away once I saw it had 1 pair.

sad when you just use the dead body and a nails...

Sweat bee is what we call them

Sometimes I wonder how fun it would be to have massive human-sized wasp wings and just be zooming around.

"This, is, a, wasp, ding, oh, i, thought, it, was, a, wasp,"

I’m wrong it was a hover fly

It’s a yellow jacket
😊

It’s a yellow jacket

I am a 9yr old and I follow this Chanel lamo😂

In Czech republic is fly looks like wasp too🐝🪰

Are you telling me that idk what stung me 4 years ago?!

I hate how he talks

Hey talk slower next time

Yeah be my guest if you want to wait around to see the difference, I’m swinging and running 🏃‍♂️🐝

In flight patterns, I have no idea how people mistake them for wasps

Also, if you look at the wasps back part, they’re different wasps have dots in lines. The other insect has just lines.

Saw it and said "oh a hoverfly" then waited all the way to the end for him to say it, why am i looking for parasocial validation ffs?!

My dumb self i thought it was a bee

Yellow flies here in the south! Worst animal ever made!!!!!

My butt desires baby powder

Either way I am out of there lol

We have them in Germany in the summer... They're easy to identify when they do their little stationary hover flights and only seem to fly zick zacky...the instant relief you feel when you realize they're not those yellow jackets crawling out of Satan's butthole!

I’d rather not get close enough to inspect how many wings… I prefer to keep my distance 😬

In my garden I get a visitor also looks like a bee yet it's a fly however it's not the one your showing this how ik the eyes also got a yellow band going through it the one your showing does NOT have that feature plus the one here is much larger and resembles a honey bee not a wasp 😮🤯

I'm sitting here watching these videos, screaming the incorrect answer at my screen like like an absolute maniac

Got it was a hoverfly from the top down view.. I need a hobby 😂

Scary to stumble across in the garden either way 😅

One wing wasn't even enough to leave

I SAID A HORNFLY 😭😭😭

If you are close enough to identify it you are too close

Looks like a fish to me

You can difference fly or wasp easily at the head, the fly only has a trunk, the wasp has big jaws

Why it’s been pinned as if it was jesus on the cross

i could tell just because the hoverfly was cute

wasps are not cute

Hornet

Teaching me basic maths I know how to count bro

The wings so obvious so no need to emphasise

Who will have the time to look at its frikin WINGS?!
Like they fly by with SPEED ⚡️

took me a minute to realize there were nubs on the thorax in place of the second pair of wings, i was so confused seeing what looked like a wasp with halteres
