This photo captures a yellow dung fly (Scathophaga stercoraria) looking surprisingly distinguished as it perches on a piece of rough, sun-drenched tree bark. A very fuzzy fly with large, orange-brown compound eyes and a bristly, golden-toned body. Its posture is alert, almost as if it's posing for a tiny "National Geographic" cover. Despite its somewhat unglamorous name, this fly is a sharp-dressed predator. The golden hairs on its legs make it look like it's wearing a high-end mohair suit. It is standing on deeply textured bark covered in bits of yellow and green lichen, which perfectly complements its golden color scheme.
