Matching Colors

I'm not usually a fly enthusiast, but this one enchanted me: metallic green and gold, with eyes as red as the meadowhawk perched next to it! If my research led me aright it's a Green Bottle Fly.
My telephoto really struggled with getting a focus on this. I keep pressing the poor thing into service as a macro lens, and in this case, I'm impressed with how well it did.

Gorgeous colors... remarkably varied, too.
