Hike After A Storm — 2 Comments

  1. Hi Art! I am exploring your blog and appreciating all your stunning photography.

    That insect is a robber fly. I don’t see them very often, but get very excited when I do, as they are fascinating insects.

    Key features are the humpback and long proboscis.

    I’m going to continue looking at your other photos now …

  2. Gena,

    Thanks so much for the ID! A robber fly. I read that they’re also known as assassin flies. What a great pair of names! It’s hard to believe they are aggressive predators though. It’s so tiny.

    Thanks for the kind words about the photography. I’m glad you like it. Please help spread the word!

    Art
