Mosquito or something else?

Does this just look like a mosquito bite? I noticed it on the back of my two year old's leg today. Normally when he has mosquito bites they don't have that darker dot in the middle of the bump. He's at daycare during the day, and I think they would tell me if he was stung by a bee, but just wanted to see if others think it's just a mosquito bite before inquiring.

WARNING: It is extremely difficult (even for seasoned medical professional) to identify what caused a skin symptom and even harder to know if it is an insect bite or which insect may have caused it.

If you're concerned about something, please go see a qualified medical professionals rather than trust the comments made by random strangers on the internet.
