One of the most ancient and evolutionarily conserved behaviors in the animal kingdom involves utilizing wind-borne odor plumes to track essential elements such as food, mates, and predators. Insects, particularly flies, demonstrate a remarkable proficiency in this behavior, efficiently processing complex odor information encompassing concentrations, direction, and speed through their olfactory system, thereby facilitating effective odor-guided navigation. Recent years have witnessed substantial research explaining the impact of wing flexibility and kinematics on the aerodynamics and flow field physics governing the flight of insects. However, the relationship between the flow field and olfactory functions remains largely unexplored, presenting an attractive frontier with numerous intriguing questions. One such question pertains to whether flies intentionally manipulate the flow field around their antennae using their wing structure and kinematics to augment their olfactory capabilities. To address this question, we first reconstructed the wing kinematics based on high-speed video recordings of wing surface deformation. Subsequently, we simulated the unsteady flow field and odorant transport during the forward flight of blue bottle flies (
