Yeah, Troy, they seem to be uncommon, not quite sure why. That said, I have not seen one single Robberfly @ my parents place. Really frustrating, especially since I was used to seeing 50+ per summer in Sydney...

Mitchell - you've been bitten by the macro bug, it won't take you long to get a macro lens I suspect. It's a very enjoyable hobby. That said, sometimes, it's just nice to watch your subjects rather than image them. Get to learn your subjects - it'll really pay dividends when it comes to imaging imho. I have a bunch of links that I use as reference for identifying etc (as well as a lot of books).
