I saw this bug fly into the polytunnel carrying this fly, luckily it landed where i could take a few pics of it, Graham cropped it for me tonight. It's really quite gruesome and i have no idea what the bug is that has captured the fly.  |

It looks like the robber fly, will kill honey bees too.

Maybe it's the ultimate complement, "you're so nice I could eat you"  |

Great pic. Rosie even if it does look a bit 'creepy'! ;D I've never seen anything like that either.

Great photo Rosie, I've learned to put blinkers on where nature is concerned, survival of the fittest. We are the only species which ignores the rule.
