I just came in from my girlfriends house alittle while ago, and found a giant mosquito on the side of my house. it was attracted to the light I suppose.
Before anyone asks, this is not a crane fly, I have been around those all my life and this is not one.
this seems to be a mosquito that drank the blood of Rambo or Gov. Swartzenager(sp) or just some other body builder on 'roids.
it's shaped just like your avg. mosq. only he's... built. bigger body, legs. he's kinda black or she I guess (isn't it the females that don't have fuzzy antenne?)
I live in North Alabama if that helps anyone, and if you need me to, I can take a pic. I've got it in a test tube so it's not going anywere unless it spits acid or something ;-)
thanks for any identification ideas.
