I’m ok with paper wasps, I remove nests from unwanted places by hand, so at least they can rebuild elsewhere, I was leaning on the fence to take a picture and forgot they were there, we are still friends but they gave me a good warning. They deter intruders ,good pollinators as well. #wasps

There was a great early evening sky, and the light was cool, this is as I saw it, just one picture.

Tree people, I like them, the blue green one would have been a big tree, I don’t know the story of how it came to be, possibly cyclone cleanup. The giant dung nettle with a ball of hose sprinklers is nearby. Every park needs a giant dung beetle, a friend in Australia.

This skink was out last year, laying eggs, it spent some time making a depression in the soil that it was happy with. It was quite big. Garden skink, striped skink. There was even a skink in the sink. #wildlifeofAustralia #reptiles #skink

I harvested greens for cooking yesterday, I do look for little friends, this one was tiny, my camera claims many things but close ups are difficult to focus. A tropical House Gecko. #lizards #reptile

I only had the phone with me, I have to do better😌 The running or prowler spider, Tibellus oblongus It was tiny, and running, apparently a favourite food of wolf spiders, they normally live in the grass. #wildlifeofAustralia #Spiders

I keep thinking Shakespeare, a malevolent ruler, a retinue of landed twit courtiers, a failed wizard who wants to remove wizards that make people not sick. Posting bizarre edicts to keep the populace in fear, Jaberwocky perhaps. We haven’t got to the line of ascension yet and it’s only act one.
