Monomad: Bristle Fly
The bristle fly (Cylindromyia intermedia) is a species of fly belonging to the subfamily Phasiinae. Like hoverflies, bristle flies prefer flowers over dung or carrion. I photographed the fly in the bushes near my house yesterday afternoon. It was perched casually on a thorny ball of a shrub. It was exposed, vulnerable to predators like jumping spiders or robber flies.

I love the sepia tone of the photos; it goes perfectly with the quality of the photographs you took. Good job, as always.
Thanks Jose :)
