Horse fly is a type of pest that is often around livestock. This species is categorized as a pest because of its bite which can make livestock lose weight. The horse fly that bites the livestock is actually a female. While the males prefer to look for nectar and pollen.

The difference between female and male horse flies is seen in the eye where the male looks closer together. In contrast to the female whose eyes look slightly separated. Another characteristic is a larger size than other types, which is about 25 millimeters.

I took this photo of the fly using a smartphone camera of the Oppo Reno 5 type, which is located in Geudong, Samudera District, North Aceh. Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. Hopefully this post is interesting and friends like it. Regards @yanis01
