Lovely butterfly post, Yorkie!

We’ve been plagued by deer flies, horse flies and mosquitoes lately! As soon as you go outside, some ol’ deer fly starts buzzing about your head.

I saw a type of horse fly yesterday that I have not seen for several years. It is very large, bigger than a huge bumble bee and is pitch black with big wings. I looked it up back when I first saw one and IIRC, it is a buffalo fly or something like that. Frighteningly large, as one can imagine the painful bite of this winged beast! Ouch!

I want more butterflies!

TCP, I hope those nasty horse flies are not bothering your "Jack".

There is only one insect that belongs anywhere near your beautiful horse -
