They are all at it

Ragtag Daily Prompt Friday: Risque

Turn away now if you have sensibilities about those risque actions within our insect world

Around here, Dragonflies are always at it

And the flies………..

Even the car aerial of guests weren’t immune

There are a lot of Tiger Moths. Now I know why

Line-blue Butterflies pretend that nothing is going on

Whereas Orchard Swallowtail Butterflies are quite demonstrative

Find a stick and it’s on

Just have to hang on

Blue Triangle Butterflies like the mirror image position

With Damselflies it seems to be a case of hang on

Breakfast in the garden

Denzil’s Nature Photo Challenge: Patterns

This is what happened one day a while ago. Has been a thought for a post for a while. Finding Denzils challenge of patterns in nature, these photos fit the bill. Well there’s only a small amount of variation but I hope you’ll enjoy having breakfast with a female Satin Bowerbird and later, a Blue-faced Honeyeater comes along.

“Oh wow, I just love these Grevillea flowers for breakfast even if I have to get on tip-toes”

“You just have to get those early morning drops of sweetness”

“If I can get right in, there are new drops of nectar just waiting for me”

“A few more licks here and then I’m done”

“But I really should look under here and have a good check, just in case”

“Better make sure there’s nothing left on the top either”

“Hey! That looks really sweet and juicy over there. Mind if I join you?”

“Not at all. You can have the flowers on that side of the tree”

“I’ll stay over here and show off my patterns to everyone, one last time”
