Life Is Everywhere
When you not looking life is abundant, perhaps it is the heat that brings much right indoors to be gently ushered right back out. Now you might be curious to know what I am talking about.
Against the black tile floors was what I thought dental floss dropped that had been used, picking it up going to the kitchen it moved! Setting it down on the sink top to my surprise not dental floss, but not clue as to what this is either. Perhaps a spider, or stick insect.
On researching the closest identification found is Net-casting spider - Deinopis more I cannot say, taken out into the garden and set free once photographed around midnight.
Next morning on fetching coffee, greeted by a moth..., oh an ant in close proximity, using identification tool appears to be the part of Diaphania indica species.
Before getting outdoors during this last week we have had a snake in the lounge, ushered outdoors quickly! Cockroaches the size of tanks parading around along with a few rats, now those we have to take care of getting outdoors or dead quickly, rats or mice attract snakes no go territory sharing with either.
Let's get into the garden, yes watch where you walk. Blue Pansy butterfly - Junonia oenone oenone, plays on the lawn with dandelions flowering many and other flowers in full bloom the garden has picked up over past week with more butterflies in attendance flitting around.
Most don't realize, stand outdoors and watch butterflies being territorial over their garden, it is amazing to watch them chasing another away.
Within a meter or two was this citrus swallowtail (Papilio demodocus) butterfly which never settled, dancing around the curry tree in the garden where I see them arrive from now through autumn.
Close proximity still shaded area African banana slug (Elisolimax flavescens) on route.
Pin-tailed Whydah bird is still at chasing the ladies, knows no end to his antics. In this sweltering heat you would think he would take a break, no not yet only once that grand plumage disappears will be go back to being normal for awhile.
On entering the house once again in the kitchen treated to a surprise attack of a praying mantis and potter wasp Synagris analis which resides within the home on occasion, yes when you live in Africa expect to share your home!
The big black wasps that come indoors have never bothered any member of the family to date, the small red wasps will sting once started..., try stop them as my husband found out last week leaving his hand swollen for a couple of days! Mantis did not get that meal so I opened the window to allow him to short cut out of the house.
Thanks for enjoying the natural world I share around the home, also within one cannot lock up everything in sweltering heat, expect visitors and watch where you walk all the time! Have a wonderful weekend from sunny South Africa. Your turn!
