Default Encounter with Supah-Fly

Was at AH this morning taking some Macros, my mistake was to wear FBT-like shorts and gave the mossies a free buffet. I spotted a spider and wanted to take a picture of it.



As I was depressing my shutter button, I felt something larger than the average mossie landed on my thigh. OOF due to the shock of the large "mossie" on me. Immediately I swung my hand wanted to bring an end to the irritating mossie but i came to a halt...



And I saw this... Took my camera and tried to snap pictures of this Fly in awkward positions. While the Fly happily hopped ard my thigh...





Somehow i think my sweat tastes great...



Satisfied Fly... Then it flew off after i started to walk ard.

Comments on pictures are welcomed. Thanks for viewing

Decided to see this cos the title has my Nick on it.
This is damn cute. And I'm amazed at how you can shoot the fella on your thigh without the fella flying away.

BTW, you yoga master or contortionist?
