This very active flying creature visited my office today. I don't yet know its name (I think it may be a wasp) but it is quite remarkable even without a name. It measures about 1/2 inch in length.
The Flycatcher
To describe my lifelong fascination with flight and with creatures that fly I like to echo the words of John James Audubon who in 1839 wrote of himself as "...one who never can cease to admire and to study with zeal and the most heartfelt reverence, the wonderful productions of an Almighty Creator."
