Robber Fly

Male Ommatius sp. Found at Auburn River National Park. Queensland, Australia.

 

It seemed a bit odd for an Ommatius to be perching on a rock, but after conversing with asilid expert Greg Daniels there is apparently a group that does indeed perch on rocks.

 

Single exposure, uncropped, handheld, in situ. Canon MT-24EX flash unit, Ian McConnachie diffuser.
