Hate to tell you this but it is a fly, probably one of the robber-flies, which are predatory insects. The feet are extra sensitive because they are used like hands - the fly swoops down on insects like bees and grabs hold of them then uses it's sharp mouthparts to stab the insect. These are the big cats of the insect world

NOOOOOOOoooo!!! Yuk, I hate flies. But this one looked so pretty....in some ways.
EEek they sound like horrible flies. I didn't expect that at all. Sad to think they kill other flying insects.
