Mosquito que se aloja en mis tomateras, no se a que familia pertenece pero en mis tomateras están todos sus parientes más cercanos... y la verdad, además de echarles azufre te cagas en ellos… (en los mosquitos, eh!... en los tomates no!).

Here's a fine little example of one of those funny-looking flies, the Mosquito Hawk. Growing up, I was always told to never harm them as they were beneficial bugs that hunted and ate mosquitoes. This, in fact, is not true, they couldn't eat a mosquito if their lives depended on it.
Rather, they are just bumbling, poor fliers who never really stand a chance of escape. Their lack of navigational skill leads them to bump into things and their tiny wings on a large body makes them somewhat less than graceful. They cause no harm, they pose no benefit against pests.
I still wouldn't kill one if I could help it.
This photo is for Ann. She was wondering what a Mosquito Magnet was, so I thought I'd post a picture of ours, as well as an explaination as to how they work. After a couple of years of operation - we can actually sit outdoors and not swat at the pesky critters. Princess Lodges, as well as other tourist establishments around the state of Alaska, use these wonderful and silent machines to keep their guests comfortable while they enjoy the magnificent scenery that sourrounds them.
*** The Mosquito Magnet works by copying the characteristics that attract mosquitoes to animals. It does this by giving off carbon dioxide. The way it gives off carbon dioxide is by having the propane from the tank hit a catalyst that causes the gas to become heat, water vapor, and most importantly, carbon dioxide. However, that isn't all that's needed to attract mosquitoes. There's a cartridge that mimics the sweat and breathing of a mammal. When placed upwind from the breeding ground of the mosquitoes, such as a pond, these scents will attract the pests. When the mosquito comes near the Mosquito Magnet, it gets sucked up by a vacuum inside the power head and into the mosquito bag. The mosquitoes will die of dehydration in the bag.
This little bugger had been flitting around me most of the evening. Eventually landed inside my iced-tea glass, so I covered the glass to prevent escape.
These shots were through the side of the glass, sorry the glass was so dirty on the outside.

for Macro Mondays theme: unexpected
sometimes we focus our attention to the big picture and unexpectedly capture something unique. Here I discovered a blood sucking mosquito feasting on an unsuspecting frog, but only once I viewed the image on my large screen.

Lightly armed and with armour trimmed down for speed, the Mosquito scout mech is designed for swift recon missions. Unlikely to survive a pitched battle, its suprising survivability comes from its ability to outpace heavier mechs, and even other most mechs in its weight category.

The Mosquito prototype under restoration engine-less, this is a superb museum staffed by really great people who are more than willing to share their time and tell stories of the aircraft.Got a great tour of the aircraft and a wonderful insight into the history of the aeroplane.
In September 1939 the de Havilland Aircraft Company established the Mosquito design team in Salisbury Hall, the prototype Mosquito, E0234/W4050, subsequently being built in the adjacent buildings.
When Walter Goldsmith, a retired army major, purchased Salisbury Hall, he soon came to realise that it had been used by de Havilland during the war. On contacting Bill Baird, then in charge of PR at de Havilland at Hatfield, he discovered that the company had used it as the design centre for the Mosquito, and that Baird had squirrelled the original prototype away in the Fiddlebridge stores, just off the airfield at Hatfield. Having resisted several calls to burn the aircraft, Baird was delighted to find someone who could offer the old aircraft a home. de Havilland carried out basic restoration work at Hatfield, and Goldsmith accepted the aircraft back at Salisbury Hall in 1959.
I was stupid enough to wear shorts while hiking to the Hungarian Falls. The mosquitoes sure took advantage of that and showed no mercy. I had to race back to my car as soon as I got this shot.

I took another jeep adventure yesterday over Mosquito Pass (13,185' (4019m)) in the Colorado Rockies. The 4-wheel drive guidebook lists it as the highest pass road in Colorado open to travel.
It was a fun trip, but the road was slow, rough and 4-wheel drive only. Most of these roads are old mining roads/trails from a century ago.
This view is near the top. That's the town of Leadville below, which sits at 10,200' (3110 m). Off in the distance is the mighty Sawatch Range.
