Well, don't most of us like a snack after making love?

Now this is really interesting
What is going on over there? This is no snack after love, that looks like a snack during making love :D
If I should guess , the one on the bee is a male :D

This are some cool shots

Looks like the robber fly had a chance to mate just after he had captured the bee for a meal. I guess he's all set in the munchies department after he completes his "business".

Thank you for that Mr B , yes looked it up on the net and robber fly looks like it fits a fly that likes to catch bees on the wing , so i think you are on the money , eating while having sex sure its all been done before

Looks like the robber fly had a chance to mate jus... (show quote)

My pleasure Gawler. His behavior does seem rather rude though, doesn't it?
