Oviballus vidae AKA the Sheepy Jumper
I still stand by my standard fluffy bumble bee! They love my lavender!
Who the fuck downvoted this
I thought Cutiefly is completely fictional, TIL.
I would’ve called them Fairbees.
Maybe we can teach them to bee.
Humans: flies are so disgusting
God: lemme add a little bee in there
Humans: 0.0
That’s not real, as another commenter pointed out that looks like a felt animal

Somehow that looks even faker
They’re cuter than the bee fly.
It looks like a felt art project! Yet another reason to conserve the rainforest
It’s cute but by the tilt of the eyes we know it’s evil
More mischievous, I think.
insects with hair are my soft spot
In the lower right photo I can hear him yelling “wheee!”
I’ll take that advice any day of the week
Bee flies? I sure hope it does!
i dream of a world so safe the bee does not need to tire herself out with flight. hundreds of bees just happily strolling along
The larval stages are predators or parasitoids of the eggs and larvae of other insects. The adult females usually deposit eggs in the vicinity of possible hosts, quite often in the burrows of beetles, wasps, or solitary bees.
Larvae live parasitically in the nests of various solitary bees and wasps.[2] When the fly larva locates a host larva, it will consume it slowly, greatly increasing in size as it tightly holds onto the host, eventually becoming a pupa and overwintering.[9]
haha yeah, adorable
You could make the human reproductive process sound pretty gross, too. But then we get all horned up, and it sounds like a great idea!
Ladybug is adorbs, but they’re a demonkin if you’re something they eat.
robber fly, its basically the fly version of dragonfly, they love to intercept mosquitos and other fly prey. there is a quite a few parasitoid flies, that attacks different insect hosts. the strangest ones are BAT FLies, which has no wings and are mostly blind.
Why would bat flies have no wings? Bats famously have wings!
bat flies, have evolved to cling to bat fur, they look like freaky spiders. apparently they are considered parasites on bats.
They kinda look like adult botflies too lol. Why do the most horrific things grow up to be so cute?

I mean we consider human babies adorable, and they can grow up do some pretty horrid things. Also cats.
we consider human babies adorable
Tbf, there’s a lot of people that don’t find babies cute
I guess if human babies attached and ate a host slowly before getting huge we wouldn’t think of them as adorable. These flies are us in reverse, they start horrible then grow into teddy bears of the sky
What do you think being pregnant is?
And parenthood.
Look, if you decide to be a beetle, you know the risks!
Statistically speaking, you’re more likely to be a beetle than anything else
Cutiefly
I too, immediately yelled Cutiefly when I saw the pic. So that’s where it comes from. The real thing is just as adorable.
