Description
Meet my new pet.. it's really fantastic..for the ones who don't know.. this is a green bottle fly (Lucilia caesar)...:-)
A green bottle fly is in a way very beautiful. Nevertheless I can understand the people who have other opinions about him... his hairy back side, his big red eyes, you name it....
And there is the fact that it scavanges on rotten meat...
Still I hope you like the picture !!
