nieceandtows ( @nieceandtows@programming.dev ) English2•9 months agoIs this the same insect as in this picture? This is one of the very first pics I took on my first point and shoot back in 2010. Never knew what it was. Just thought it looked cool.
lol3droflxp ( @lol3droflxp@kbin.social ) 5•9 months agoYes, same family at least. Robberflies (Assilidae), they are basically flies evolved to do what dragonflies do except they develop underground instead of in water.
nieceandtows ( @nieceandtows@programming.dev ) English1•9 months agoThat is so cool, thanks for the info!
Looks like it
