I have posted photos of this fly before, here and here. But it is quite photogenic, in a pallid, bristly sort of way, so here it is again ...

  1. Indeed, a most stereotypical Fly sort of fly. If the Disney studios were making a film about insects and their friends (and enemies), this is the sort of fly they'd want!
