This is a view that I usually see in my plantation when the rainy season has arrived. On the wild leaves, there are so many long-legged flies mating. There is not just one pair, but almost on every leaf, there are always some of them.This particular fly has a very different shape and coloration compared to other types of flies in general. It has long legs, as well as a slender and elongated body, but it is still a very wild flying insect and quite difficult to approach.

Perhaps they are taking advantage of the rainy season as their mating season, but I don't need to worry about their presence because this particular fly is not a major pest to my plants.To capture the beauty of this particular fly, I photographed it using a macro lens, and it was quite easy to do because they were so busy with their activities that they didn't pay much attention to me.

Okay everyone, now I will share some pictures of this long-legged fly here.
