Insect On A Green Leaf

Another day of photo hunting in the local park and this time spotted something different. Looks like some sort of a fly but since I don't come across the species much then they must be elusive. Or probably timing is just not right.

Not many shots taken with this bug. After two shots and he was up and away. Didn't like the flash I guess. Focusing is off but for keeps sake this will do.
