The insect in your image appears to be a **bee-fly** from the family *Bombyliidae*. These flies are often mistaken for bees because of their fuzzy bodies and similar appearance. They have a distinctive long proboscis, which they use to feed on nectar while hovering near flowers. Despite their resemblance to bees, they are harmless and do not sting.
