A Golden Dropwing here and 13 photos of the small beauties in nature!
For some reason I like taking macro shots on Thursdays. Maybe it is an effort to compress the events of the past week into a macro frame.
Points scored for successes and points dropped for failures and of course the summary of outcomes to consider for improvement purposes.
But without further ado, let's have a look at today's pictures.
Hope that you enjoy them!
This little guy was blowing bubbles with the nectar Lol.
Strange behavior as maybe he was filtering it!
Here we have a pair of flies, the fly at the front had a flat tire and the one at the back was pushing her!
(In case of children seeing this)
Here's a shot of a paper wasp on a reed!
A red Scarlet Dropwing dragonfly!
And here is a Blue Dropwing dragonfly!
The drags are early this year as usually they only start to appear in late November, early December!
Now I have no idea what specie this little spider is, but the spikes on it's legs fascinated me!
A female Carpenter bee in flight, searching for pollen possibilities!
Ah! Have a look at what landed here in this bush!
It was the famous Citrus Tail, Papillon, in his full glory.
I had maybe one minute to get him before he was off again.
Wait, wait, wait until the bird reaches the crest of the late cloud and then snap! Done!
A sunset shot of a farm below the mountain that we can see from our place!
And That's All Folks!
A rough week for me as they have discovered that the pain in my legs when I walk far is caused by my spine and not by my blood circulation.
The doctor's report states "Severe degeneration of the spine". So major points dropped in my week.
Another setback, as we will not be partnering with another non-profit, as all that they want is our credits to fool funders, by claiming our work as their own. More points dropped.
The Papillon projects at our old place in Johannesburg are running well and we have freely distributed 2000 pairs of slippers, 202 towels and 6 gowns to a big old age home and a poor township called "Fietas".
The goods were donated to Papillon and we arranged for the homes to go and collect it. Points scored.
So it seems that our week turned out fairly even.
We hope that you have enjoyed the pictures and thank you for visiting a post by
