A fly from the Robber flies (Asilidae) family, Diotricia hyalipennis ^{[1, 2]}.

It came flying in near to the ground to consume a prey it just caught. The antenna and large eyes make this small fly stand out. After quickly finishing its snack the fly moved on again.

Unfortunately not a very good photograph but the insect is fairly clearly visible. And although a common species  it is not something you’ll encounter on a daily basis so we allow it 😅.
