Thanks Gracie:))))

Weird looking creature, but great shot Rob!

Gotta LOVE those big eyes....and all the hairy appendages!!!

I remembered Kate's posting of this. Your photo is so clear and details are so evident. Thanks for sharing Rob.

Rob, that's one clever son you have. I didn't know Jeremy could fly. :-))) ♥♥♥

Thanks Nev:)) Jeremy had his camera with the big fancy lens on - and I pipped him with my point and shoot camera before he flew away:))))

Fabulous photo, Rob. You and Kate have certainly got this fellow covered, from all angles. ♥♥♥

It sure is Barb:))) Our neighbour over the road is a biological illustrator at the museum and he had a greatly magnified photo of a Robber Fly's wing - to do his diagrams from - and even the wing edges are hairy:))) Thanks :)))

Thanks Jacki - Kate's photo reminded me that I had this photo:)) Thanks :)))

LOL!! That he's definitely not Shirley:)) Thanks :)))

I don't think he's handsome, but interesting to see, Thanks, Rob.

i agree with you. i worked kate's yesterday and read her text. i hope they never come here. our bees are already in dire straights.

Great photo Rob....everything is hairy on that bug...LOL

LOL!! He sure is BK - and I'm pleased to say I don't see them very often:)))) Thanks :))))

He's one hairy guy!!! Kinda glad we don't have them!

I noticed it TenStar - and have seen it being done in real life:)))) No sheep ever gets hurt - and when you are out the back of beyond you do whatever is necessary:))) Thanks :)))
