Ugly Duckling

Williamsburg, VA

For me at least, even most flies are quite attractive when you get up close to them. Not so this guy. He looks sort of like the ultimate middle-school geek of flies.

Same flower as previous 4 image. I was amazed to see how many different types of nectar feeders this plant drew. Seems like an entire ecosystem in 4 square feet!

Agreed. Nice shot technically, though.
