While I was cleaning the mango tree in front of my house, suddenly I saw an insect flying among the leaves, at first I thought it was a bee because the color was very similar to the color of a bee, but when this insect landed on a mango leaf I immediately realized that it was a flower fly. This fly has the same shape as other flies in general, but the difference lies in its color, this fly has a color that looks so unique and beautiful, and there are several natural patterns on its body and on its eyes, its size is also relatively larger than other flies but still this fly can move quickly and very agile. It is very difficult to approach it because the slightest movement will definitely make it fly away, but what I have to do at that time is much more than that, I have to think about how I can approach and photograph it. But after trying several times I finally managed to find its weak point, at that time I managed to approach it from the left side and I also managed to photograph it even though I only managed to take 3 pictures.
Okay friends, now I will share some pictures of this flower fly here.
