The fly is an Australian icon, right up there with the greats like vegemite, meat pies football, kangaroos & Holden cars. Some aussie icons are under threat of extinction, like handshaped aussie made surfboards.

That’s why Darryl Wilkes has adopted the blowfly as an emblem, although the blowie doesnt seem to be under threat, they’re as thick as ever.
