I haven't posted a Crane Fly photo in a long time. But when there's one sitting on the wall outside my door, it is hard to resist taking its picture. Take a close look. Crane Flies are really beautiful. They go by many names ~ Mosquito Hawk, Daddy Long-Legs, and my favorite - Gollywhopper! Adult Crane Flies don't eat. My guide-book says "they live to mate and die". Sounds a little harsh to me! My book also says that they "serve as a food-source for birds and other insects". Sounds even harsher!
