Is it an immature fly? Like a green bottle?  I didn’t know if flies emerge as immature with different colours/appearance before turning into the adults?

It was the light green legs that confused me. Flies have black legs, I thought.

Eric, Not sure of your fly, you could be right with a green bottle.

Nice set of pics Jeff.
