p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Not mating flies


Spotted what I thought was a pair of small flies mating on forget me not flowers. It was fairly obvious that one of them was still busy feeding from the flowers. It wasn't until I was processing the shots, I realised it was probably a male dance fly carrying around a nuptial gift for a female. He just had not found the right lady yet to give it to.

Thanks Ron
I'd always wondered whether they found the gift or the lady first
