Hello to all! Is there anything to mix this lovely fly up with? It was on top of a mountain as high as 2289m, so there were no deers close, only chamoises perhaps. Size approx. 15mm 11.7.2010, Austria, Salzburg, Tennengebirge, Mt. Scheiblingkogel Rupert Huber attached the following image:  [139.33Kb] Best greetings Rupert |

If there was ever a fly that would appeal to the public - this must be it!! I really want one for Christmas! And I'd agree that this is stimulator. The host is Capreolus - Roe Deer. It has been recorded at over 2200 meters, and this one may be "hill-topping" - so higher than its hosts. Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |

Thank you both! Here's a picture of the place where I found it. It was the pile of stones in the front part of the pic. Rupert Huber attached the following image:  [133.52Kb] Best greetings Rupert |

Yes, and although exhausting, I can very well understand the flies and butterflies who love to do this, too. 
Best greetings Rupert |
