Semaphore Fly & Broad Centurion
/A couple of colourful flies around the pond. The Broad Centurion was fished out of the pond - these seem to like to go into water, but don’t swim too well. This is a male with a green body and blue abdomen. Poecilobothrus nobilitatus is more at home around water, able to land on the surface and then take off again, rather than drown. This is also the male, as the female lacks the black and white wing-tips. It was a little camera shy, so hopefully I’ll be able to get a better photo sometime.
