Wings of Leather
I need help with an ID on this bug. It kind of looks like a bee but its wings are so leathery looking. He was about 2 cm long. I've never seen one like this before. But then, I only started really looking at bugs since I started seeing them on Blip and photographing them.
The extra is another screen shot of the osprey family. It's so interesting that they are in 3 different stages of development based on their hatch dates. #1 looks so much darker and larger. Today #1 is 11 days old, #2 is 10, and #3 is 7 days old. They are changing and growing every day. :-)
Thanks to Marlieske for her help with the ID. She suggested that it looks like a Bombylius Major and, after looking at pictures on line, I have to agree. Thanks, M!
