Not exactly a great photo. I mostly took this so I could figure out what it was.
I had a recent problem with some buildup in my bathtub drain, and these guys started showing up.
This is what is called a moth fly. Sometimes called a drain fly.
It looked like a black dot with wings mostly. But, zoomed in and blown up to big size...you can see there is more detail to be found.

I hadn't heard of them either until I ran across these guys. I at first thought they were fruit flies and that my nephew or one of my nieces left food in the bathroom. But, once I got a close look I knew I had something else and took a photo.
They munch on sewage buildup, especially the larvae. More examples of natural recyclers.
