Couple of new flies for me today. Not sure on the ID of the first one, but i wouldn't want the back end pointed at me. Looks like it could target you pretty quickly.





Drone Fly (Eristalis tenax). First attempt at framing.

#2 is wild! nice work

Wonderful series- esp like #1 & #2 guess it must be a Tachinid fly with those spikes.

Ahahahaha I was chuckling to myself at the first shot,
saying ... that flie's but looks like it's glowing
Then I saw that second shot, and cracked up laughing :lol
That would have to be the best Fly Butt Shot I have ever seen

You last shot is beautifully composed Gary.
Thanks for the smiles ... Skippy
