Thanks I was going up some outside stairs and saw it on a railing my first thought was to walk far away as I could from it i have never seen it before but then curiousity won out and when it didnt fly at me when i got close i decided to start taking photos.
Cool sighting. I've never heard of a Cannibalfly. It's aka Bee Panther.
