I had no idea that flies actively hunted for live prey, but found these on a black-eye susan eating hoppers. (shows how much I know about insects

I actually like #1 the most, the angle of the eyes are cool. last two shots are wild, btw, I also didn't know flies ate bugs.

The last three steal the show, Doug. Especially like the color contrast of the one on your knee. Beautiful. Lovely series.
