I'm no entomologist but I am a master of Google-fu. It's probably a type of Robber Fly.

i dunno it happens they prettend to be bees so i was correct in IDing it, it gave the feeling of i dont want to fuck with it cause it might hurt me not to bad but still.
Lol i feel like people get a feeling like that from me here and there. its my spirit animal of the day. turns out it has nerutoxic bite to kill what it kills
Robber flies is the common name of flies in the Diptera family Asilidae. The family Asilidae contains about 7,100 described species worldwide. All robber flies have stout, spiny legs, a dense moustache of bristles on the face (mystax), and 3 simple eyes (ocelli) in a characteristic depression between their two large compound eyes. The mystax helps protect the head and face when the fly encounters prey bent on defense. The antennae are short, 3-segmented, sometimes with a bristle-like structure called an arista. The short, strong proboscis is used to stab and inject victims with saliva containing neurotoxic and proteolytic enzymes which paralyze and digest the insides; the fly then sucks the liquefied meal through the proboscis. Many species have long, tapering abdomens, sometimes with a sword-like ovipositor. Others are fat-bodied bumblebee mimics. Adult robber flies attack other flies, beetles, butterflies and moths, various bees, dragon and damselflies, Ichneumon wasps, grasshoppers, and some spiders.
The larvae are often found in decaying organic matter, such as dung heaps and rotting logs. Other species live in the soil. In most species the larvae are omnivorous
i have to say its similar to a healing method i use on people. oh and something i will do to girls ill fill them with my neruo toxic and proteolytic salvia. ^.^
