p.1 #1 · Green Eyed Fly

Landed on my boot while shooting the green frogs and others. It was particularly interested in tasting my camera, probably the salts in the sweat. Wonder if this is a biter?

Hi Mark,
Top looking fly mate. The only ones that I get around here are dirty lookin blowies that hang around the rear end of sheep!
Do flies actually bite or do the excrete a very 'stingie' (as in it burns like hell) saliva/spit onto your skin?

Looks like some sort of horse fly to me, but it could be a non biting male...

Nice shots as usual Mark!

Beautiful shots Mark

Not sure on the ID, but most likely female since there is a gap between the eyes.
