Alien Attack!

I was sitting on the river bank fishing
early one Sunday morn swatting
mosquitoes which were sucking blood
from out of my arms.

Other than that is was as peaceful as
could be. My legs were stretched out
as far as they could where I sat beneath
a lazy willow tree.

The fish weren't biting but something
behind me on my neck certainly was. It
acted just like a UFO and I'll tell
you why and because, ...

Because I couldn't see it! It darted
quickly to and fro and out of my view.
Either it was invisible, or my eyesight
had become slightly askew.

I positioned my camera on a tripod
behind me a few feet from where I sat
hoping I could document with a pic the
alien attacking me behind my back.

Here it is:

Tabanus fulvulus invisibulus
