Tiny Dragon?

This fearsome looking creature on my fingertip is a robber fly a generalist insect predator from the Family Asilidae. This one appears to have been on the losing end of a nasty fight as both its wings and one of its legs were very badly damaged.

Robber flies are great. I've had a few land on me and hang out for awhile. Just wish I had better optics to get clear shots like this. Outstanding!

Nice jetjockey. The Matrix loves it.
