It was interesting to look at the fly's structures using the foldscope. The most interesting parts were the crows that are used to hang upside down, the breathing mechanisms and the wings. This is the first time seeing this under the microscope.

I got fascinated with the wings and how they're structured.

I'm more curious to know about the dark spot visible on the wing.
