Probably about the weirdest critter I've ever photographed. Not sure what it is, I would guess some type of tree or leaf hopper.

This is Necydalis mellita, a kind of longhorn beetle. Its overall appearance is that of a wasp, and is probably a case of mimicry to ward off predators. Note the very short elytra, a giveaway that it is a beetle. It also has eyes that wrap around the antennas. Burlington, Canada.

I gotta confess that it baffled me too. An expert at BugGuide.net identified it for me.

Regardless, it is just fascinating the surprises one finds in nature, and often they are close to home.

Big black horsefly I saw under the camper while mowing. It was partially stuck in a spider web, so I managed to approach very closely. The antenna reminds me of a Pronghorn.

Nice. I like the in-line composition of the wings in the first.
