Gorgeous tiger crane fly (likely Nephrotoma suturalis wulpiana) I found on my window. I love the colors.

I love ur insect gifs.. I have recently taken on entomology as sort of a hobby/personal study after taking entomology courses at university. I love seeing their movements and behavior so close up!

aww, thank you! i encourage using any new entomological skills to correct my taxonomy or add interesting information!
