Beauty of Creativity : Micropezidae - Stilt-legged flies - 10% beneficiary to @beautycreativity - #boc

This time I found an insect that is Stilt-legged flies, I find them making love, I'm sure my presence bothers them, however I did try to capture some of these moments.

Micropezidae have a rather long body with tall legs, two shorter forelegs, and often raised forward. His head is also small which is dominated by his eyes.

Insects in this family are commonly called stilt-legged flies, after their characteristically long legs. The fore legs are markedly smaller than the other pairs. Mostly, they are long-bodied, often black flies, usually with infuscated (darkened) wings, both Neriidae and Micropezidae are close relatives and belong to the order Diptera.

After I managed to get some photos then I immediately left them, I didn't want to disturb them there too long.

The Micropezidae are a moderate-sized family of acalyptrate muscoid flies in the insect order Diptera, comprising about 500 species in about 50 genera and five subfamilies worldwide, (except New Zealand and Macquarie Island).[1] They are most diverse in tropical and subtropical habitats, especially in the Neotropical Region.
