Nature is always beautiful and to give more beauty to nature, there are different types of things in nature and among them the beauty of different types of insects is one of the beauties. Today I am sharing a flying insect that I have seen with my own eyes and I like to see it. However, this insect hurts people at different times. But of course, if a person hurts this insect, then this insect attacks people only for this reason. The name of this beautiful insect is Helophilus pendulus which I found by searching on Google. This is a very familiar insect to me and such insects can be seen around our environment at different times.
I found this beautiful insect sitting beautifully on the leaf of a small weed-like tree next to a crop field to the west of my workplace, school. When I saw the insect, it was sitting on a thin leaf that was swaying repeatedly in the wind and I really liked seeing the insect in this state. I saw and observed the insect with my own eyes and I saw that it is indeed a flying insect. This insect has a combination of different colors in its body and I saw the most yellow color combination. Moreover, this insect has a needle on its back with which it hurts people and the injured area continues to hurt for a long time. Anyway, I enjoyed the beauty of this insect and am now sharing some of the pictures I took. Thank you to all my friends.
