Flys Bug Me


Not warm and fuzzy I know.
Flies are a fact of life.
It has been an interesting three days on the road.
Last evening for instance, the flies would not leave me alone!
Quietly sitting, drinking a beer, reading a photography book.
My feet are not really pretty, but they are clean.


Oh how I wanted to sit outside.


Battled it out until this one came.
Did not know he was anchoring into my ankle until I saw this photo!
Yuk.
I am still alive and on to better places without flies.
Hopefully I will be posting better photos than this soon.
It's different posting while on a road trip.
I called it an evening.

Flies are so irritating. I hate when
you can hear them buzzing about and you don't know where they are.
Great pictures.

Nice shots Janie! We have not had a terrable year for flys or mosquitoes, but the little aphids, millions of them!! They are currently eating my flowers!

well he may have been a total pest, altering your plans and desires for the evening, but I gotta tell you, you've made the ordinary fly look gorgeous. these shots are amazing. little did I know that flies have hair on their butts. actually I don't think this guy is so ordinary after all. his colors are beautiful. but you do make him look menacing in that last shot! hope you're having a grand time, flies or no flies!!! happy day to you Janie. be safe now.

Amazing close-up of the fly.

Mosquitoes never seem to leave me alone so I know the feeling.

Have a great Sunday!
