Tabanidae, Chrysops sp.
From horse-fly to deer-fly! Well, there IS a mule deer, isn't it? So it makes sense, after all... :-)
Hey Sergio! I love the eyes on this fly! I think this is a Deer Fly. Subfamily Chrysopsinae, possibly Genus Chrysops. Check it out and see what you think!
Thanks stho002, it is certainly a tabanid fly.
Maybe tabanid? http://www.flickr.com/photos/40754330@N0...
