Robber Fly (Dasylechia atrox)
Dasylechia atrox (Williston 1883). Found at Sheridan Park in Cudahy in south-eastern Wisconsin. Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, USA.
Found in oak tree in sparsely wooded area near cliffs of Lake Michigan. On this day I had gone out specifically looking for this species up in the trees at this park and earlier at Grant Park just to the south. This particular spot, albeit not a very big woods, has a nice mix of mature oak and hickory trees.
Single exposure, heavily cropped, handheld, in situ. Canon MT-26EX flash unit, Ian McConnachie diffuser.
