Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?Yesterday night between 1 and 2 a.m., while I was brushing my teeth, a mayfly landed on my bathroom mirror. The little elegant insect in a beautiful bright green sat there and seemed to indulge in her own mirror image. I understood that she wanted to know how she looked as she would have only one day to live. In German, the species is called “Eintagsfliege” which literally translates to One-day-fly.
Poor little thing…! I captured a portrait of her to share with the world. Let’s celebrate immortality!
