Hello nature lover friends who always observe the natural surroundings to capture some of the objects found in the nature around us, on this occasion I would like to present a photo of an insect belonging to the Asilidae family, which of course belongs to the Diptera order, this insect is called the Robber Fly because of its unique nature. aggressive. For a more specific Latin name, namely Ommatius, but most people give the name of this insect as Asilidae. Below I will share some of the Robber Fly photos that I took using a smartphone camera and the help of an external macro lens, I hope you enjoy them :
