A Giant Horsefly

in #hive-1015873 years ago

Hello Hivers of the fascinating insects community! How are you? It's Sunday again! Another week of February is coming to an end. Time is really fast. Anyways! I just want to share my macro shots of a horsefly that I saw on a corn at the farm.

I was just looking at the fruits of our corn plant when I saw this horsefly. I easily noticed it on the corn leaf because it was quite big.

I approached it slowly so that it would not leave and so that I could also take a picture of it. Its eyes are so amazing. It's like visors.

I often see horsefly at the farm. But they are elusive that's why I can't get pictures of them. Good thing, this one is nice because it didn't flew away.

I have also experienced being bite by a horsefly and it hurts. It's like a mosquito. So maybe that is why I usually see them clinging to animals like cow or carabao. Because they suck the blood of animals.

It's a nice looking insect.
Thank you for your time! A blessed Sunday to all!
