This is NOT what I expected at all. When I read the name, I was expecting to see a red and white fly (color of stop signs in the US).

This fly is outstanding. What a terrific terrestrial pattern. I love the biot hotspot. Nice!

Hans, Howdy;

I was, like Ray, expecting some red & white concoction.
Very Pleasant suprise...
