Robber Fly (Laphria sp.) with prey
Female Laphria sp., I believe. Found at Wandoo National Park. Western Australia, Australia.
Found on trunk of tree. Prey is a wasp of sorts.
Found while hanging out with Jean and Fred Hort, whom I graciously thank for showing me around my first couple of days in WA and for sharing their extensive knowledge and for pointing out interesting plants and animals to me.
Single exposure, uncropped, handheld, in situ. Canon MT-24EX flash unit, Ian McConnachie diffuser.
