Long-legged

This crane fly got stuck in the house and was flying around by the window this morning. I almost killed it because it looks like a giant mosquito. I thought maybe I should take a picture of it first so I could find out what it is later on.

Not a big fan of bugs, but this is a great shot!

@denisefuller Thanks for sharing, Denise. I was going to try to catch it so I could let it out of the house (after I found out that it's not harmful) but then I lost it.
