Just for fun

Here's a mystery critter; can you identify it?

"Spiky"

Hint: the photo was taken through two panes of glass.

    Well, it's got wings. Can't see how many but the abdomen looks decidedly fly-like. My guess is some kind of Calliphorid (Blowfly)?

    Just noticed it has what look like halteres. Definately a fly of some sort!

  6. And Dawn (on Twitter; @DawnFine) said it may be a "Hairy Butt Spider".

I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.

Also, I have word verification on, because I found out that not only do I get spam without it, but it gets passed on to anyone commenting in that thread. Not cool!
