Weekly Prompts Weekend Challenge: Review (2)
There were happy puppy kites
Stingless Native Bee all 5mm of her zooming past a Hibiscus flower. This plant was a cutting from my Mum’s garden.
A Gold-tailed Spiny Ant having a drink in a water drop on the verandah. I call them Gold Bum Ants until I learnt their real name
Looking under a mushroom
First time I found some freaky looking Finger Fungus
Of course there were flowers
There seemed to be pink flowers then
The first appearance on my drift wood Stick Man walking along the beach. The start of fun creations with things on the beach by my bestie and me
Shells photos were a fun post
Insects on flowers or insects in general were the beginnings of macro photography
Butterflies and Honey Gem Grevillea flowers became a favourite
As did birds who enjoyed the flowers nectar like this Blue-faced Honeyeater
Birds at the bird bath made easy to take photos. Golden Whistlers and others always stopped in for a drink or a bath
Everyone loved the Long-necked Tortoise sunning on the almost tortoise shaped rock
Here is my Rooster. He was the one who helped start me on my addiction to photo challenges, thanks to Yvette from Priorhouse who was looking for some feather photos
Of course there was a few Red-necked Wallaby photos, taken from my kitchen window, especially the cute Joeys.
One my way home from work in town, I sometimes stopped when the sunset looked amazing just a few kilometres from my place
My first sunset photo I posted. Can you spot on the mountains where the sun was setting from the previous photo?
I’m not surprised you remember these images. And ‘Gold Bum Ants’ definitely seems to cover it!

Enjoyed your photos from 2013!
Those ants should be called gold bum.
And the stinger you grabbed in that little bee shows us the wonder of what photographers capture with their lens / many things the naked eye can’t see that well

Thanks Yvette. The little Stingless Native Bees don’t a stinger, that is probably a leg or even a wing blur. I had to have another look.
Finding about things that can’t usually be seen is the pleasure of macro photography 🙂

Oh I looked again and it must be something else!
And I think 2015 was the first time out area for those finger-like fungi spikes

Wonderful walk down memory lane, reminded me of my 2013 and the beginnings 🙂 That golden ant looks like a tiny piece of jewelry, and the Honey-eater, the Tortoise and the Joeys photos, so cute! 😀
