I wondered if we had a picture of this species in action somewhere.
Alas, my picture is not good
enough for publication. (My previous camera had spot auto-focusing and the latest one hasn't. I thought this essential function would come as standard. ) 6 August 2006
A Hornet Robber Fly caught a Greenbottle and landed briefly on the Pixie Path. The Greenbottles were attracted by about a dozen to a dog's faex and the predatory insect pounced. This large fly was quick to fly off.
