Insects in the Diptera family Asilidae are commonly called robber flies. The family Asilidae contains about 7,100 described species worldwide.

All robber flies have stout, spiny legs, a dense moustache of bristles on the face (mystax), and 3 simple eyes (ocelli) in a characteristic depression between their two large compound eyes. The mystax helps protect the head and face when the fly encounters prey bent on defense. The antennae are short, 3-segmented, sometimes with a bristle-like structure called an arista.

The short, strong proboscis is used to stab and inject victims with saliva containing neurotoxic and proteolytic enzymes which paralyze and digest the insides; the fly then sucks the liquefied meal through the proboscis. Many species have long, tapering abdomens, sometimes with a sword-like ovipositor. Others are fat-bodied bumblebee mimics. Adult robber flies attack other flies, beetles, butterflies and moths, various bees, ants, dragon and damselflies, Ichneumon wasps, grasshoppers, and some spiders.

On a recent walk around the yard, I found spots where the wind had collected leaves or was in the middle of starting a collection.

Thanks for the visit and the comments :-)

You hold my hand when I am weak,

And vulnerable at times.

And as you smile I cannot help

But turn my lips upward,

And duplicate the joy

Which lays spread across your face.

When I am sad or unsure,

You make me laugh.

And as you look into my eyes,

They seem to glitter and sparkle

With such energy and life

That I have never seen before.

And it makes me want to be closer to you

All the time.

And even when I am happy and content,

You are there for me.

Just in case I should happen to tumble or fall.

And as you laugh your sound carries across the room,

And it makes me want to be a better person.

As we go along together,

I realize how lucky I am

To be sharing my life with someone as special as you.

You are my everything;

My comfort, my weakness, my joy.

And I thank God everyday

For sending someone like you

To care and comfort me in times of need,

And to be my guardian angel.

For this I thank you,

And hope you will stay in my heart

Forever.

Surprised this hasn't disintegrated - just worked out that I did this project over 6 years ago.
