Growing up (in northeast Texas) I've always called these bugs "mosquito hawk" while the wife (from south Texas) refers to them as a "may fly". We both had never heard of the other name for the bug....and then both claimed to be right. I guess it could be possible that we both are correct...but I'd really prefer to be right.
Which do you call it? Also, they are really swarming right now up here.
Poll Results (so far)
Mosquito Hawk: 16
May Fly: 3
