Such an extraordinary discovery at night! It was raining very heavily, making me feel extremely cold, and there were so many insects that I managed to find inside my house. While I was sitting on the front porch, I suddenly came across a pair of fruit flies mating. They are really making the most of the rainy season lol .

What caught my attention was their very unique orange color, as well as their two compound eyes that looked shiny under the light of a lamp. At first, I tried to photograph them using a macro lens, but it was very difficult because I did not have enough light. So, I decided to take pictures of them using my phone camera instead, even though the results were not very satisfying.These flies are not dangerous to humans because they do not have stingers like wasps. However, fruit flies are pests for plants and fruits because they damage fruits by piercing them to lay their eggs inside.

Okay friends, now I will share some pictures of this fruit fly here.
