Dear friends wherever you are, How are you #NatureObserver lovers?.

Friends, regarding flies, you may have often seen it even it is one of the most annoying insects because it will stand on sweet food and delicious food if it is not covered. The danger of the fly is because in its legs there are bacteria and germs that will make our food so dangerous for our bodies when consuming it. Well this time I will share some pictures about flies, but the fly that I shared this time is a forest tool and he is only around forests and gardens.

This forest fly has a Latin name, Genus Notiphila. It is one of the species of flies that live in forests and grass. Also, people often call this one of the fruit flies because it often stands on fruits in the garden. At that time I found this fly in the garden beside the house where he was standing on the leaves of wild plants growing in the garden. I secretly took pictures of this insect, which I finally found a few pictures before he flew away from me.

After taking a few pictures using my Redmi Note 9 Pro cellphone and also using an apexel type macro lens to get more detailed images, then I immediately left the insect and became other pictures in the garden. The following are some images of flies of the Genus Notiphila:
