Flies and frogfruit


The frogfruit that I transplanted from the street has taken off. So in honor of its success, I decided I'd shoot a few photos. This strange looking insect showed up so I took some portraits of it as well. It looks very much like a mosquito. But mosquitos do NOT feed on nectar (I have the bites to prove it). Once again I went to Bugguide.net. It's a bee fly in the genus of Geron.
