A is for Arthropoda

Here's something I found buzzing in the backyard. It looks like it might be feasting on an adult aphid or leaf hopper. Either way, it's nice to have these type of predators at work. It looks like a cross between a fly and a mosquito. Is it a midge? But, after scanning google, I came up with an image of a "robber fly" that matches.
