Description


this sneaky fly (Haematopota pluvialis) wanted to sting me. It was so in love with my smell that it did not notice that I shifted it on my garden knee cushion. One sees her clearly in the photo, as tried, blood to refuel ;-)) The sting of this fly would have been very painful....... wish you a great day and good luck! ....many thanks for the nice remarks and favorites on my previous photos!

One could never accuse a fly of being smart. And this only proves it! Wonderful shot - great details - especially the eye and wings. Fabulous!
