DEER FLIES

Ok, confession, I did not take this or the next one. It landed on my shooting hand so I flung the camera at my friend and grimaced while directing camera angles.

Did I mention they have razor-like mouth parts to slice and dice?? My hand swelled like Michelin Man for about a week.

Love their eyes however, gorgeous.

This must be a male as it did not make for my tender skin.

Instead it supped delicately from a blossom

Even the predator can become prey

HORSE FLIES

Taken with my previous non SLR camera. Man these guys bite hard as well, plagued us swimming at the lake.

Almost camouflaged on a tree trunk. So big, ow ow ow.
