Ray's Thought for the Day - Some Flies Like to Get Their Pictures Taken

That's why they sit still. All righty then. I now have pretty good pictures of four different robber fly species habitating at the CB. I may have to break down and figure out what they are. Meantime, outside, the rain, rains. A rainfall update shall be upcoming, anon. Also, my cinnanmon bun was delicious. Also, all the ingredients of my upcoming thistle patch are collected. Crumby and me just need to figure out where to put in the thistle patch.

Here's the caterpillar picture Crumby wanted to show Rayetta. Variegated fritillary on Hybanthus verticillata. Note the clubbed distal portion of the antenna.
