Robber fly (Asilid sp)

This robber fly was hanging on my car window and seemed in no hurry to leave. Because of the window, he looks like he is suspended in air. I've noticed that robber flies seem particularly abundant this year, not just at FWG but everywhere I go, and even in my own garden. There are many, many species of robber flies, ranging from the tiny Holocephalus, to the very large Proctacanthus.
