Found this guy outside my house, took a picture and then let him go, thought you guys would find it cool.

That's a mantispid. Mantis "flies" have only 1 pair of wings.

Neat shot! In areas where they occur, you can bring tons of them to black light set-ups where they'll happily feed on other bugs on the sheet.
