@batteryacidfires submitted: these were the only pictures I could get of a little green friend I saw at work the other day (they waved 😭) this was in southern alabama !

Ha! The waving pic is precious. What a pretty little friend. This pastel pal looks like a green horse fly, Chlorotabanus crepuscularis :)
