8-12 Ditch Stonecrop, Bee Mimic Robber Fly
8-12
Ditch Stonecrop - a member of the Saxifrage family - grows in wet ditches and swamps.
A Bee Mimic Robber Fly - genus Laphria - was busily consuming a Japanese beetle when I took its photo. There are 63 known species of Laphria and close to 1000 species of robber fly in North America.
