Unusual Fly
I have only come across this fly twice and both times are included here. No other angles made sense. http://www.diptera.info/photogallery.php?photo_id=2185 and 2nd here: http://www.diptera.info/photogallery.php?photo_id=5132
Odds from Roundabouts
It never ceases to amaze me the endless variety of form and colour of the small nature at our feet. It’s everywhere to be seen at different times and yet so few see it.
Cane Toad
This creature was introduced to Aus by industry in ’37 to combat the sugar cane beetles but since it doesn’t fly it didn’t do a very good job. It has done a very good job eating or killing everything else though. It has its own integrity.
Ichneumon Wasp
This is a rare instance when the wasp actually stops long enough for a few shots. The relative cold probably had something to do with it. Then a car backfired in the distance and she was gone.
Drone Fly
Another of nature’s beauties, she was sheltering from the wind and rain on a leaf near the ground and stayed long enough for me to get a few shots, turning this way and that so I could get a few different angles. Thank you fly.
Hibiscus Harlequin and Flower
The Hibiscus Harlequin Bug. Found in remnant rainforest. This is a short visual account of the life of these beautiful creatures.
