That isn't the deer fly that I know so well from our property in CT. A deer fly will have distinctive wing stripes/pattern. In CT, they relentlessly swarm around your head during the month of July. Typically around marshy wetlands and wet woodlands. I have found solutions that help make being outside tolerable during that month. Otherwise, you are simply miserable and the bite is very painful.
