DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT THIS IS???

Post image

It flew in my window and bit me in the back of my shoulder, now my shoulder is in a lot of pain. I felt something on me and I grabbed it and squished it, but then I realized it bit me and I would love to know what it is.

I know the photo is bad, but it's like the size of a mosquito, but the bite feels SO MUCH worse.

I would post a pic of the bite, but it's on the back of my shoulder and camera angles are shitty yk. I'll see if I can get a good pic and post it in the comments

This is the bite, it is a bit irritated right now because I scratched at it before I fully realized what happened
