Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge — Lies
It’s time again for the Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge hosted by Long and Short Reviews.
Today’s topic is: Something you believed but found out wasn’t true
This one was easy for me… and the betrayal I felt when I discovered the truth….see this?
This is what I’ve always called a mosquito hawk. And, growing up, I was told they eat mosquitoes. I spent countless moments doing things like saving them when they got into the house and putting them outside because MOSQUITOES=BAD, MOSQUITO HAWKS=GOOD.
Right?
Wrong.
That is NOT something that eats mosquitoes… it’s a crane fly.
A crane fly.

What??????? I’ve always thought the same thing… huh.
It is indded a crane fly, or a fraggle as we call ’em in the Northeast of England. I’d much rather those than mosquitos.
Live and learn.
