Identify this thing

[Scuzi]

I suspected a queen wasp but I’m not sure. I’ve never seen a queen wasp lay on its back tripping balls. It got up and flew away after I tried to talk it into moving on.

Hornet? Buzzard?

 

[Minibiker]

Maybe a hornet, ive seen a few around lately, big ******* they are

Looks like a cockchafer

Had a lot of them in my upper leg region with all this hot weather...

Sea eagle

 

[VaderDSL]

Horsefly maybe?

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

It looks like something sunbathing?

 

[Lopéz]

A Cockchafer is a beetle. That's a fly.

It's a Drone Fly. Harmless.

Indeed, a dab of Nivea can avoid friction and chafing problems in the danglies, just dont tell the
wife I've been using her expensive creams on me bawsack.

I bet it's not got a single wrinkle though!

 

[DampDog]

Dunno what it is, but it's deffo be killed by a Queen Wasp...

 

[Chris Wilson]

I think it's an upside down horsefly. The six, coloured as they are, abdomen sections typifies it. I've just been cleaning out the cattle troughs and a few have gotten intimate with me, damned things

 

[Street]

Horsefly maybe?

Yep, I'd say horsefly. There seem to be loads of them around at the moment, and I'm usually their prime target and get torn apart. It doesn't help that it seems the one thing I'm allergic to is insect bites!

 

[Yadda]

It looks very thirsty, no wonder it's horse.

Looks like the culprit

 

[Scuzi]

It looks like they bite. I’ll employ a little more assertiveness when I ask the next one to move on.

 

[FerretBoy]

Yeah they give nasty bites and aggressively pursue their target.

 

[XeNoN89]

Yeah horseflies are nasty buggers and fall into the kill it with fire zone

 

[Scuzi]

So I’ve seen 5 of them, all laying on the ground on their back. I give them a nudge and they fly off pretty fast. I thought they were dying but they moved pretty quick to be on deaths door.

Horsefly. Seem to be out in force this year and have already fallen victim to two of them. Horrible little b'stards and their bites itch like mad.
