Wow, your encounter with the Microchrysa flaviventris is absolutely fascinating! 🪰✨ It's incredible to think that something as tiny as this soldier fly can carry such vibrant and intricate details. The fact that it's not commonly seen makes your discovery even more special. I'm particularly amazed by its iridescent colors and how its red eyes almost cover its entire head - nature truly is an artist. Your photography skills have beautifully captured its essence, bringing attention to a creature many of us would overlook. Thanks for sharing this gem from your garden and teaching us a bit more about the world's tiny wonders! 🌿📸
