Description

What I believe is a Picture Wing Fly from the Arboretum. When I wasn't next to it with my camera lens it would do a little circle dance around the leaf it was on. Soon as I got back in it's face, it would stare at me and sit still. Much like a Jumping Spiders reaction to a camera lens. Great looking eyes on this guy, and fairly small at about 8mm. Thanks for taking a look. -Bruce

Magnificent! I doubt seriously a still shot could have captured the full movement of the dance. Video, possibly. However the detail of the full image is such that one can see the octagonal lenses of its eyes.
