A Proctacanthus robber fly; with Genus Microbembex Prey; perched on a sandy patch of ground in Colorado; its long legs carrying it over small pebbles and blades of grass. The fly's fuzzy body and large; dark eyes are clearly visible as it navigates the terrain. Its long legs stretch out; reaching for the next foothold; creating a sense of movement. The fly's shadow stretches behind it; highlighting its graceful; almost delicate; form.
