Horsefly/Cleg 10mm long
A horsefly yesterday. About the same size as a bluebottle fly, as they are called here. They have a distinctly dusty, soft appearance with a grey-brown colour, and fly and land very quietly. Just as they bite, if you know the feeling, there is about 1-2 seconds to swat it away before the bite hurts. (Author: Mike Wood)
