thank you

I don't know what it's real name is, but in Mississippi they call them Mosquito Hawks. It's not really a mosquito, it's about 10 times bigger. But the eyes are pretty!

The good ole Mosquito Hawk. That is what we call them here in Texas too. They are all over the place. Great capture and good DOF.
