Fantastic capture as always Val, great colours, lighting, comp and details. I would be inclined to say that it was in the order Diptera (fly), perhaps a Tipulidae (crane fly). I am not certain as it has only 4 (visible) legs which threw me and without a closer inspection not sure. There is my 2 cents worth :) #10022465

Looks like there are 2 bumps where the back legs were- maybe they will grow back. But it has plenty of spares! (That's how great the details are- that I can see all that!) #10024084Barbara Waldoch March 05, 2012
