An Australian Blow Fly

They do not lay eggs, but rather, give birth to live maggots. So as the fly was crushed by my teeth I could feel the maggots wriggling on my tongue.

But only for a couple of micro seconds until my stomach voided and they were flushed from my mouth.

There have been many other assorted bugs and detritus, ( including cow pee as a road train went past) but the Blow Fly takes the cake.

PS
Have you seen how much a cow pees??? Gallons and gallons
