Never before in 72 years and 1 day

Around noon today I was sitting on the side porch in the sun when a pair of copulating flies landed on my forearm. I saw them approach and thought they were one bee, but when they landed they were very easy to see. One was mounted on the back of the other. They were very still and I watched them for what seemed a long time. It seemed like I could swat them easily, but what would be the point? What I really wanted was a picture, but when I eventually rose to go inside for a camera, they flew away.

I guess I have not yet seen it all.
