I had a great chat with Bob Gress and Pete Janzen about Kansas, Kansas birds/birding, and their great book. If you haven't got to know these great Midwest birders or birded Kansas, you should! #birds #biring #birdwatching #kansasbirding #ecology #conservation

Black Horse Fly (Tabanus atratus). Tabanus species have scissor-like mouthparts that are able to penetrate the skin and extract blood for food. And, of course, they are vectors for Anthrax. Delightful!
