Hi All

Apologies for being vague, my reference books are packed away pending a house move.....................................

I think this is a fly. I saw it for a fraction of a second, fired off a few shots and then it was gone. I never even goty a good look at the flight jizz.

It reminds me of a very hairy spearhorn but I am struggling to ID.

Thanks, Gareth
