I have never thought that this little flying insect is actually a species from the solder fly family, because the shape and the body is a little bit different from the soldier fly that I usually find.
It is interesting that its head and its eyes resemble a dragonfly, and that is one of the reasons I thought that this little guy is not from the soldier fly family.
I will use the first photo below as my entry for this week photofeed macro contest.
But yeah I was wrong, because this one is a kind of a soldier fly, with an orange body, a little bit long with a very small abdomen, a thin and long one. Somehow it is also mimicking a parasitic wasp.
it is such a beautiful insect and I was a little bit surprised to find that this guy wan to stay still for quite a long time so that I could have sometime to photograph this guy in so many angle and then share it with you all.
