June 25 - Baby Bug

I was lounging in the garden trying not to sneeze and wondering what to do for a PAD today when this fly landed on a daisy.
I just happened to have the camera to hand so why pass-up an opportunity like that?

This is just a baby Housefly. I’m sure that to adult Houseflies it looks cute and cuddly so I’m going with that.

And why NOT. This is a wonderful close up of a fly. Can't have been easy to get this. Brilliantly focussed and clear. BV
