Spanish fly
Spanish fly

This is a fly with a tiny little sombrero on it (not pictured). These poor flies are the laughingstock of the insect kingdom, because "z" in a Spanish accent is pronounced "th." Therefore, these poor creatures fly around going "Bththththththth" all the livelong day. ¡Qué lástima!
