hello flyforum,

I have got no idea about this flying object..

Some of these were walking on the rail of the bridge in the Forest(amsterdam)

I found the pattern of moving typical; first, quick walking, second, turning vertical with the face down and the wings in the air.

At that time I thought of some Tipulidae sp., but looking at my picture it does not look at all.

I couln't make any better picture, because of there quick movements..

I would prefer not to receive any more messages from diptera.info signed by Paul... (Thread reply notification)... Could they be signed by ‘The diptera.info team’?
