http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarantula_hawk

I saw something flying by. It had translucent red wings. At first I thought maybe a dragonfly, but there is no water nearby (and this was single winged). As I got closer I saw it had a dark black body and translucent red wings. It appeared to have a long stinger hanging from it. It looked more like 4-5" long to me, but I did not get close enough to measure it. The tarantula hawk is the closest thing I could find on the internet; though it is only close.

It made me think of the terrible creatures in the Apocalypse when I saw it.
