Rabbit botfly, Cuterebra buccata, Oestridae, Diptera. Found in the United States.

Bot flies are parasites of mammals; the rabbit botfly, as its name suggests, parasitizes rabbits specifically. Female botflies will deposit their eggs either directly onto the host or on a vector insect which then visits the animal and unwittingly deposits them. After hatching, the larvae burrow into the skin of the host and feed on living tissue. Over a period of weeks, the larvae mature, eventually emerge from the host, and drop to the ground where they burrow into the soil to pupate.

Photos 1-3 by meaddy, 4-5 by awells, 6-7 by janetatlock, 8 by newmexicobirder, 9 (larva) by aphanotus, and 10 (adult fly with pupal case) by peterwchen

**Photo 9 shows the larva of a related species, Cuterebra fontinella, the mouse botfly. I couldn’t find a photo to share legally of the rabbit botfly larva, but they look pretty much identical.

Past Photo Favorites - Downy Woodpecker (Female) there is a chance that this is a Hairy Woodpecker but the AIs lean toward Downy. I welcome your suggestions.

Past Photo Favorites - Ladder-backed Woodpecker - these are small birds and seeing it take on a large power-line pole reminds me of the song “high hopes.” - the second photo is a collage from this encounter. #PastPhotoFavorites #LadderBackedWoodpecker #DryobatesScalaris #NewMexicoBirds #PhotoByJeriRae #MaleLadderBackedWoodpecker #Woodpecker #Birds #Bird #BirdPhotography #Birding #BirdingPhotography #Naturalist (at Agua Fria, New Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnNorrVPEsj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Scenes From My Walk - Woodhouse’s Scrub Jay Makes Another Appearance! After not seen a Woodhouse’s Scrub Jay since I started my walks, I have now seen one twice on day after the other and in a different place. This one later flew to a roof with food in its beak. #ScenesFromMyWalk #WoodhousesScrubJay #WoodhousesScrubjayOfInstagram #ScrubJay #NewMexicoBirds #JayBird (at Santa Fe, New Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/CS4wjmDLkr8/?utm_medium=tumblr
