Robber Fly eating a Red-shouldered Leaf Beetle

Ommatius sp. eating a Monolepta australis

Notes:

Seen in my yard today. I was captivated by the robber fly's amazing wing patterns, and didn't notice at first that it was having breakfast. Here's what a Red-shouldered Leaf Beetle looks like when it's not being eaten: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/169...
