I thought it was and almost swatted it, then noticed the freaky antennae. It is a wee bit bigger than a mosquito.

This is a mosquito, albeit a male (and therefor non-biting). See http://academic.emporia.edu/aberjame/wetland/wildlife/wild28.jpg for an image of a male and female mosquito side-by-side.

How cool is that?

Thank you. Of the bazillions of Mosquitoes I have seen I have never seen a male one.
