I feel like flies are so underappreciated, I'm glad you enjoyed :D
Thank you very much for the phantom crane fly - this was the second of two bugs that I saw when I was young and nobody believed me that they were real. I saw it flying around and it was bizarre - the way it holds its legs out, like the arms of a snowflake, and its wings totally invisible.
The other one that I saw was the beautiful Pelecinid Wasp.
I'm glad to have helped you find the name of a very cool bug :D I read somewhere forever ago that their feet might look like that bc they have little air pockets in them to stabilize them when they hover
These are all so FUNKY, ty for introducing me to brand new silly guys :3
