This cicada was watching me eat my lunch!
What a handsome creature.

Cooloomon Scar tree near Wheeny Creek. Hawkesbury. Nsw. Australia.

An Australian painted lady butterfly (Vanessa kershawi), rests on top of an opening grass tree flower spike (Xanthorrhoea spp). Grass tree flower spikes get reeeeaaaally tall, so the angle of this photograph is from below, the sun is coming through the butterfly's wings, glowing orange and glancing off the creamy white fuzzy flowers. Glowing green grass tree needles are in the foreground, and tall Jarrah trees in the background of the picture.

Sometimes you just gotta stop and watch a butterfly living their best life schlurping some grass tree flower spike juice.

A large kingfisher with a long, dagger-shaped beak. The corners of its beak turn upwards so that it looks as though it is smiling slightly. Soft white feathers on its belly, iridescent blue opal spots on its brown wings. Continue reading...
