A temporal fractal is clearly shown in the feeding behavior of Drosophila as a self-similar pattern of locomotive velocity and inverse power law distributions of food dwelling time over the time scale range of 10(3). The fractality was observed in the dwelling time distribution immediately after the fly was placed to feeding site or on inferior food in a two-choice situation. Fractality may be understood as adaptive, and an intrinsic property of animal behavior that reflects complex information processing in the CNS of Drosophila.
