Re: PESO - Unknown Fly

Diptera are one of the hardest organisms to identify.  There's an
online key here:

http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/61027#page/89/mode/1up

You'll have to ID the family first by gross features before keying it
out.  The very short antennae and slim body seem to be distinctive.

List of North American dipterists here, who might be willing to help:

Good luck.

Quoting Alan C :


Yes, that's it. Bottlebrush plants/trees are popular with gardeners here too.



Judging by the weeping habit of the branches, it's almost certainly  
Callistemon viminalis, or one of its cultivars.

That was at 300mm and cropped just a tiny bit to make the vertical
straight.  I was pretty close.  Probably no more than 10 or 15 yards
away.

I think the birds at the duck pond get used to people.  People fish
there every day.  There is a walking path around the pond. Kids bring
old bread to feed to the ducks and geese.  There is a large pavilion
and playground at one end of the pond where there are a lot of kid
parties.  A little farther away are baseball and soccer fields.  So
there is a lot of "people" traffic.

if you're careful you can get within a few feet of most of the birds.

We've got several places like that around here. Mostly flood control
lakes with surrounding parks & green-ways. Ducks & geese tend to become
habituated to people because they're constantly being fed - enough so
that they are becoming a nuisance in some places - but the Great Blue

Anyone know what kind of bird this is?

It showed up at the duck pond in a local city park recently.  It's
been hanging out with the ducks and geese.  I know there is a big
flock of Sandhill Cranes in the Safari Park about 25 or 30 miles south
of town, maybe it's one of those.

It showed up at the duck pond in a local city park recently.  It's
been hanging out with the ducks and geese.  I know there is a big
flock of Sandhill Cranes in the Safari Park about 25 or 30 miles south

My basic raptor identification decision tree -

Is it a bald eagle? Yes/NO? ... no.

Since it's obviously not a bald eagle, it's a red tail until proven 
otherwise.
