Peggy C's photos with the keyword: will go after large insects

- in the family of Robber Flies - this predator either waits or catches his prey in mid-air - including butterflies and bees - this is my first experience with them - after living in Florida, thought I'd seen most weird-looking critters - the Skipper butterflies were all over the place - flying much more than usual around the Buddleia davidii - the Skippers usually find a good flower and camp out - same with the large bees - this guy was even going after the Snowberry Clearwing Moth - in the Hummingbird Moth family - well really was after 2 of them - don't think he caught anything that evening - Mother Nature and her critters (c) All Rights Reserved
