And this is a fruit fly, this fly is often found on plants and among rotten fruits, its shape is very similar to flies in general but the difference lies in the color, especially on the wings. This fly has a size that is not too big but also not too small, the right size and looks like flies in general. I managed to find this fly when it was perched on wild leaves in my garden, when I first found this fly I was hesitant to photograph it because as we know flies are very fast insects.

But we will not know the results if we do not try, slowly I began to approach this fly, unfortunately at that time I forgot to bring a macro lens so I had to photograph this fly using a cellphone camera only. I saw this fly move a little and had time to circle the leaves, this immediately made me stop my steps, after this fly was still again I tried to approach it again, I immediately brought my cellphone camera closer to it when the distance was right I immediately took a picture of it.
