Wah, what in the world is this?

Fantastic series macros, bro! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

thanks, you are too kind

BTW this is a robber fly

Some info taken off the web

Robber flies are not to be trifled with. Capable of immobilizing bees, wasps and other insects larger than itself, robberflies catch their prey in mid air. As with other aerial predators, robberflies have excellent vision, characterized by two conspicuous compound eyes. The mouthparts of this family have been modified to a stabbing proboscis. Flies were revered by the ancient Egyptians who awarded a military honor in the form of a golden fly pendant.
