A fly is a very common insect that can fly, as the name suggests. Flies lay their eggs in rotting food or dead animals in the wild, and in your house they lay their eggs in any of your food that they find. The eggs hatch into maggots.
Flying is a way of moving through the air. Most things that fly do it because they have wings, but helicopters fly by using a rotor.
