Bryan Wright<p>A large, graceful crane fly, with a bonus ant. </p><p>I have trouble taking pictures of crane flies: they don't sit still for very long, they're easily spooked, and they hang out in dim , shady places. This one was pretty cooperative, but I still didn't get any particularly good pictures before I scared it away.</p><p>I was impressed by how sleek and silky it is. I don't think I've seen one like this before. So far, I haven't identified it.</p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/fly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fly</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/flies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>flies</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/tipulidae" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tipulidae</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/diptera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>diptera</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/insects" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>insects</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a></p>
