Hi all,
I was out last night bunny bashing and the most amazing fly landed on me , I have tried finding it in my Collins guide and on line but to no avail so perhaps a short description might be enough for someone a bit more expert than myself to identify it:

About 1" long, very bright fluorescent green colour legs included, eyes large bright metallic green, wings semi transparent and tucked over the body.

This definitely looked like a fly not a wasp etc any help much appreciated.

Thanks guys,
definitely not a lacewing even brighter green almost da-glo, more fly like. Have been checking out all the horse flies and they don't match either , nothing that colour also the thorax is more elongated cigar shaped, wings tucked parallel with thorax tucked over the top.
