 This is not my pic but have permission to post it here. Shot in Israel in the last few days by a fellow macroholic Omri Alon.
I've never seen a fly with a proboscis like this. Any ideas ?

 Possibly a muscid - Stomoxys calcitrans, the 'Biting Stable Fly'?

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
