Happy #Flyday

I have fallen off the face of the earth again. Work gets in the way of life... I took this photo at Occoquan Bay on a frigid December day. Its easier to take thier photos when they are too cold to move. Despite the below freezing temps, I saw half a dozen species of arthropods. I'll try to post more...

#FridayFlyday: just encountered this gorgeous metallic bronze-green-blue soldier fly (family Stratiomyidae) in the garden! It was very placid and let me get lots of photos.

Flyday Friday catch! A Dioctria robberfly, probably. Caught it while it was snacking on a march fly.

#FlydayFriday: Warm weather has returned and so have what I call "zebra flies", _Anthomyia_! With their dark red eyes and striking black and white stripes they are very appealing.

I'm not really sure if this is a fly, but it's certainly enjoying what this flower has to offer. (Edited # because I can't spell 'Friday'.)

Happy #FlydayFriday! This beautiful robber fly was a great photo subject. They're not very afraid of humans. They remind me of helicopters.

After the rain ... #Flyday, #FlydayFriday,

Rotting pumpkins are good hunting places for jumping spiders to catch flies.
