I saw that you posted some bot fly pics, but they were a little fuzzy. Here are a few I took that are a little more detailed. Perhaps not the exact same kind of bot fly, but pretty similar. There appear to be three tiny eyes between its two big compound eyes.

Hi Vince,
Thanks for sending us your Bot Fly images. Now people can understand why the Interested Mountain Girl thought it looked like a mutant.

Mutant? I think it looks like a pug dog.
Posted 14 Apr 2009 at 10:59 pm ¶Today 9/26/09 my cat brought me a chipmunk with what appeared to be three Rodent Botfly larva attached. I had never know about the critters. The chipmuck was in shock and lay still as I watched the larva “back out” from the chipmunk’s body. I hope I am able to post the photo.
