Field Notes

Description:

These little flies were so interesting. They almost seemed to dance around each other with their wings going back & forth. Sorry I don't have clearer pictures, they were very small.

Habitat:

They were found on my bird feeder, feeding on bird droppings.

Thanks Shanna & thanks Argy Bee, the bird droppings are directly under our mango tree :)

Great shots Leanne. MMmmm... bird droppings! Love the eyes too. Maybe some Tephritidae, Trypetinae.... although the birds might have had to eat some fruit :-)
