This weekend I discovered the variety of flies! As a follow up to my last post, we have all kinds of small flying creatures taking advantage of the sap on our prickly pear cactus. And I must say, taking close ups on a cactus must be handled very carefully. Fortunately I only had to pull one needle from my finger…
Today I am sharing a couple of the fly photos. I had no idea I could capture these details. So strange and awesomely cool 😎

Well, I really don’t like flies… But I will say this was rather fascinating.

Flies do make very good macro subjects if you can get close enough without scaring them off. You did good, Lisa! Great macros! 🙂
