 You learn something every day by taking pictures of flowers. I thought
that a fly is a fly, but it seems that the Green Bottle Fly is important in
forensic science in determining the length of time since death and in
medicine by removing necrotic tissue in wounds. Not only that, the Green
Bottle Fly is an important pollinator (seen here doing that duty), as when
they can't find carrion, they feed off nectar and pollen!
