Are you ready for this? This is nasty.... this one takes after the horse more than the fly, in size anyway...
scroll down...
prepare yourselves...
Check this out. This horsefly was probably three inches in length, including wingspan. Imagine the bite you'd have from this guy! If I catch Mary attempting to eat one of these...

OK, OK... so we figured out this is a cicada... not a horsefly. It sure looks like one! Whatever it is... it's BIG.
