I'm a little confused correct me if I'm wrong. The flies are attracted to the smell of bees being attacked so they can steal from the attacker.There's a flower that can mimic the smell of the bees wherein the flies fall for it and gets stuck inside the flower searching for the "food" and at the same time pollinating it and when they get out they will probably get attracted by the neighboring flowers of the same species.

Absolutely correct. :)

I learned something new again today. Thanks!
