A face only a mother could love?

Crane Fly (Tipula longiventris?) Spotted this guy having difficulty flying. He was dragging his abdomen along the ground. When he landed I noticed he only had 4 legs. Not one of the more beautiful insect 'faces'.

Great mug! In my search for the lovliest face on a small creature I think I found the scariest of all with the Solipugids. Cheers!

Good shots-

ermmm does he have any rear legs

looks like walking could be a slight issue for this guy.

Good shots, especially the last one.
