Also, it's tough getting these shots with an iPhone in full sun. That screen just doesn't stand out enough.
So as a result you shoot several frames and hope for the best.
Also, I shaded this with my hat, which helped a bit.
There's a shot from the other side of the fly that shows the proboscis sticking into the fly, but it's too fuzzy to use, darn.

Bob Allen helped me identify this as a robber fly. Unfortunately, it also goes after bugs that I like, including butterflies. Hmmm.
