Robber Fly (Pegesimallus sp.) with prey

Pegesimallus sp. Found at Goukamma Nature Reserve, WNW of Buffelsbaai. Western Cape, South Africa.

 

Found in coastal forest habitat along the Buffalo Bay Trail. Unfortunately this beauty had landed in a spot surrounded by tangled forest vegetation and I could not maneuver for a lateral shot.

 

Found here: 34.08305S 22.96973E.

 

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