Hey dipterists,
This organism sucking my blood seems to be Haematopota pluvialis. Isn't-il ?
Observed in Pine forest/ Haute Ardenne 50.4924° N, 5.8643° E yesterday afternoon

I agree.
Weird that the third antennal segment seems totally black, though...

Thank you Zeegers
Perhaps the light change the transparence of the antennal color ?
As it change the colour of the eyes ?
