A Bee Fly, Brachyanax satellitius, spotted at Thomson Nature Park on 22 Dec 2024. The second shot shows it in mid-flight.

Within a day of posting it on iNaturalist, it was identified, showing the power of a world-wide social network for nature observations.

So far, this is the first and only observation of Brachyanax satellitius on iNaturalist [ inaturalist.org/observations/2 ].

A small fly with swept back wings resting vertically on a wooden post. It has a black body with large brown eyes. Its wings are black nearer the body and transparent nearer the wing tips.
The same fly, captured in mid-flight, showing more of its body. The body is completely black, except for two small white spots on the sides and a circle of white at the tip of the abdomen.

The funniest population to react to East Asian dislike of of fans and wind drafts (to the point that there's such a belief of fan death, and you can find auto switches for JP/KR-sold fans that'll switch off standing fans at night because it's considered unhealthy to sleep with the fan on*) has to be Malaysians and Singaporeans because:

1. Standing fans ONLY? we have *ceiling fans*
2. Fans only? We turn on the a/c AND the fan at the same time 🤣
3. There's even 2-in-1 units like in the pic lmao

Anyway this is weird behaviour outside our respective countries but natch, it makes sense to meeee.

*I'm understating it. They believe you'll die.

A shopee page showing a ceiling air-conditioning unit that has a fan attachment at the vent. The idea is that it will help to move the cold air around better and with a visible windy feel.

"Australian flag carrier Qantas marks its 90th year in Singapore on April 17.

Singapore was Qantas’ first international destination and remains “more important to Qantas than ever”, said Mr Nick McGlynn, the airline’s executive vice-president for Asia.

On April 17, 1935, a four-engine DH86 aircraft carrying two passengers landed at Kallang Airport."
