Sometimes you just couldn't make it up!

Each eye contains around 4000 lenses giving the fly an almost 360-degree view of the world
And the mosaic effect is quite stunning

Sounds and looks impressive but it has its drawbacks...

Because fly eyes have no pupils they cannot control how much light enters the eye. With no control over how much light passes through the lenses, the fly cannot focus on the image it sees
i.e. it has permanent blurred vision

Doesn't seem to stop them finding the most irritating places to land though!

Nothing much to say about this, other than its a fly.
