so much for that mystery! hehe. thank you sir.

ewwwww ewwwww… it’s a BUG and it better not land on me… ewwwww!
( but if I wasn’t so grossed out, I’d probably think it was a pretty cool photo! ) -
Yep, definitely a fly! My husband thinks it’s a hover fly, though, but he wasn’t totally sure. I’ll have to send this link to my father-in-law; he’s an entomologist and he never stops talking about flies. He’d love that shot.

That is a fantastic example of mimicry. A little defenseless fly looks like something to be weary of. Nice shot.

Sweet!
I want to feed it to my spider. š -
How very odd. I saw one the same day and wondered the same thing myself. I decided “fly” and promptly shoed it.

That’s a super fly, man. Superfly!
