I again managed to find a long-legged fly in my plantation, it's been more than 2 weeks I haven't found any of these insects, but I think it's normal because this insect often appears during the rainy season and he prefers to live in cold and humid areas. Different from other flies in general, this fly has a unique shape, he has large eyeballs, an elongated shape and is generally blackish brown, but what makes him special is his long legs. This fly is also quite tame so it's quite easy to approach, so photographing this fly is an easy thing.

It's not very large, but with the help of a macro lens, I managed to capture this fly quite well, and the good news is that I also managed to capture it from several different angles.
This fly is not at all dangerous to humans. I don't know whether it is also considered a pest or not, but according to the information I know, this fly is not dangerous to plants, but this fly often leaves its droppings so that the leaves it lands on become dirty.

Okay everyone, now I'm going to share some images of this long-legged fly here.
