Another set of images from today. Hoping for some different species coming in soon now the weather has picked up. I did get quite a few shots of the Exceptionally common "Gone Fly" today. That's the fly that just as you press the shutter button, it takes off and is GONE!. Didn't bother to process those :)

Crane Fly - I always find these tough to shoot for some reason but think I did ok today :)

And another fly I'm unsure of the species.

Thanks again. It's such satisfaction when the light works :). It's such a clumsy setup I have as well but it works good enough for me :)
