Thank you Bill. If I know you, it won't be long before you have it figured out!

Great shots Stephanie! This is the same midge that I have been trying to identify from my spotting. I've been through all the pages of bugguide.net and still haven't found a good match:(

Thank you Leuba! I am new to photographing insects, so I appreciate any help I can get:)
