A close-up video shows a housefly resting on a textured, dark brown or beige surface. The surface is covered in a grid pattern of small, raised bumps, possibly a plastic or rubber mat. The fly has prominent red eyes, a dark body, and translucent wings that show some iridescence. It occasionally moves its legs and wings slightly. The video cuts once, showing the fly in a slightly different position on the same surface, with some light reflecting off the textured ground.
