User's notes

A blob of irridescent green that was impossible to chase; had to wait and hope one came a bit closer. This one did. Pretty sure there was only the one just moving about a bit.

Confirmed on teh basis of most probably rather than certainty - would need wing in focus to rule out it being within teh Blow fly family
