These flies cost the Australian agriculture industry dearly. There are huge penalties for transporting fruit illegally across state borders to try and control the spread. Oxley Creek, QLD.
I thought this hairy little moth/fly creature sitting on our patio tiles was a lump of dirt until I looked through the viewfinder. It's about 3mm across and had trouble in a light breeze. Its head is tucked in underneath. Toowong, QLD.
This little fly was wandering around on a cow pat. There were lots of flies doing unspeakable things on the cow pat. This one was the prettiest. Kyogle, NSW.
