Hydrellia tritici, Ephydridae, bodylength approx. 2mm - I'm starting to really warm to these guys (other uploads from me). They are constantly putting on a display and are quite tolerant of close cameras. I've already uploaded video of their leg waving but I'm experimenting with different equipment - basically using my reverse lense on an old digital video camera which has good optical zoom (20x).
Couple of interesting things in the video. Primarily the obsessive foreleg displays, but from an ID point of view there is a large black velvety spot above each wing base - this feature distinguishes H. tritici from all other Hydrellia species in Australia. Oh, also it shoots a terd at -51sec.
Filmed in my backyard amongst the lawn grass, Dynnyrne, Hobart, Tasmania, 23rd October 2009.
it occurs to me that all these objects/tools & perhaps many more, need a storage place, a drawer, a shelf, a filing cabinet, a library of sorts, in our daily lives...
We were sitting on the beach today looking at the West Pier when this guy in the wetsuit with a mahoosive speargun suddenly appeared out of the water. I missed his actual emergence, but I looked round and there he was. I love the look of complete gobsmackedness on the dad's face, and I totally sympathise with his reaction.
I gave this a pretty tight crop to emphasise the surreality of the spearfisherman emerging from the wreckage of the West Pier. I would imagine the wreckage provides a great habitat for fish, although he was unlucky this time!
This shot doesn't really work on the web, it needs the original resolution. It'd make a good print, I think, although I cut it down to 3.3MP, so it wouldn't be a large print.
Here it is large and MUCH better, but still not quite large enough.
Today we (we being, fellow Flickr contacts) all met up for a quick stroll around the park and along the river bank into Burnham for some ball play on the beach with our jolly canine friends...We do have a laugh!
I look at these shots and can't stop smiling. The banter on and offline is always SO good and our friendships all started with a love of nature, dogs and cameras united by the big world web..
Meeting face to face is called..'Going Primitive' in Urban slang...and I like it a lot...in fact, I'd go as far as saying...
I lub it, I do!

Ever wondered how the penguins' beaks get so shiny?
There's a team of young ladies who make sure they are spick and span.
At least I hope that's what they are doing !-D
I become more and more convinced that a major barrier to Japanese speaking English is that they can not use adjectival clauses.
They need to be convinced that English is not like Japanese, that English is far more difficult than Japanese, because it is impossible to learn English vocabulary because there is too much of it. The Japanese don't realise that English vocabuliary can't be learned because they learned their own vocabulary by learning the Kanji characters which enbable them to make up all the words in the lexicon. Japanese vocabulary is vastly easier in that respect since there is a short cut to a massive vocabuilary, and enables even non intellectuals to use on average far more words than speakers of other languages.
The culture of misogyny, sexism and predatory behaviour towards members of the public and female colleagues persists across many UK police forces today. A report was commissioned by the Home Secretary in response to the abduction, rape and murder of Sarah Everard. Enough. is a brand new play that focuses on the perspectives of female police officers and explores the various ways that misogyny manifests in the police force. How does this culture still exist in 2023? Enough is enough.

Note the cicada checking the other one out with it's foot, I think this is to determine if it can mate.
Taking nosiness to a new level, Maya drags her stool right up to the neighbour's fence and has a good look, all from the comfort of a seated position.
The grand entrance hall to Kings Weston House just to the North of Bristol, and one of the city's finest buildings. Carefully restored by a local architect who now runs the place for meetings and events. This detail of the fire surround, not the original Vanbrughn one but a later Georgian addition really makes me smile. I am sure most of teh wedding guests miss this
More dung-sniffing action I'm afraid, but this time I've focused on the legs. I thought the mudballs on the mare's fetlocks looked quite pretty. I wouldn't say this if I had to groom them off!
Change in dog behaviour: When your dog reaches the age of two, you will see fewer behaviours that were common when he was younger.
He's less likely to get involved in things he shouldn't and less likely to be rambunctious. You will also notice that he is more attentive when training.
Have fun with your puppy at the age of two. Around five months, most puppies go through a difficult stage.
Depending on the breed, dogs may not grow out of their adolescent phase for another 2-3 years.
Many experts think the most challenging period is between 8 and 18 months. This is the only time they mature, and most adults don't do childish things like intentionally disobeying a command they already understand, like "sit."
It is not a fixed date when they suddenly "change." They change as they reach full maturity.
They had reached sexual maturity at six months, and we had them in our early teens, but neither of us was emotionally mature.

Growth And Development
Your dog should be eating adult dog food by now. Please select a high-quality dog food that will supply appropriate nutrients while not overloading him with calories. The amount of food required by your dog is determined by its size, activity level, and breed.
Assess your puppy's diet kind and amount with your veterinarian or a dog nutritionist. As for activity level, remember that your puppy benefits from daily exercise.
