Great macro shots! Sure is a furry little thing. Really like the eye detail in that second shot.

they do have hair indeed no wonder that the pollen keep sticking to it :)

What a sticky situation he has gotten himself into!! Amazing macros, again, again!

Thank you Denise , they sure can get messy indeed

Wow really great shots

thank you very much

Wonderful shots.
We have this species way down here in Tasmania as well. Such a wide distribution.

they are very easy to approach when they eat :)

You kinda start to like the flies more knowing they also eat pollen and not just crap from the garbage bin and then come you your kitchen and poop on everything :p

they can be use full in a way
