Description
Spotted in our garden, under a leaf of the Campsis radicans.
The Latin name of this kind crane fly is:
Nephrotoma appendiculata
Dutch name: Langpootmug, but no ordinary one. (geen 'normale' soort ;-)) .
They also call it in English: Daddy long-lags.
The little rain doesn't do much here, all is still very dry.
On the heath, fires were yesterday evening.
Thanks for viewing and probably commenting.
It's very much appreciated ♥
