Description
Lucilia sericata looking splendid on yellow and pink.
The maggots of these are used to clean wounds that won't otherwise heal. Lots of interesting articles if you look it up.

Such a dainty creature. Looks like its walking around on tiptoes. Most people find flies disgusting but you have managed to bring out the beauty in them. A marvelous image.

now that bit of information is fascinating. I know that surgeons use leeches to help with capillary healing. Great capture
