Click beetle and the fly!

This fly sat and watched these two the whole time they were there, it took over 30 piks to get all these in focus, this was the only one!
Im not sure the species of fly I think it is in the horse fly family!

Love it! I guess the beetles didn't mind an audience - you and the fly!. V

Those whacky beetles! Like the way his antennae go straight back. The little fly is icing on the cake. Fine shot. S&L
