I do believe this is a long-legged fly despite it's lack of metallic look that most of the members of this family have. It's also a little "furrier" than most I was able to find. If not, it is merely a fly with long legs:0.

I kind of like the very blurry daisies in the BG.IMG NOTICE: [NOT AN IMAGE URL, NOT RENDERED INLINE] A little different angle. This fly was quite amenable to my manipulations of the flower.IMG NOTICE: [NOT AN IMAGE URL, NOT RENDERED INLINE] Thought I'd try a portrait crop.Michele
