A species I absolutely loved spending time with in Kununurra - the fabulous Comb-crested Jacana! Those feet & their lily-walking abilities makes for a wonderful photographic opportunity.
Titled “The James White”.
Fozzie: "I got a job at the factory that makes combs. It's a part-time job, and sometimes it can be a little hair raising. But I did buy my bald friend a comb for his birthday. He said he'll never part with it."

The Buff Tailed Bumblebee is one of the most numerous bumblebee species in Europe and has been and maybe still is used in greenhouses for pollination purposes. Nests are usually found underground such as in abandoned rodent dens. Colonies form comb-like nest structures with egg cells each containing several eggs. The queen will lay egg cells on top of one another, the colonies produce between 300/400 bees on average with a large variation in the number of workers, this ensures a division of labour and efficient colony functioning. Workers are entirely female and mainly forage for food, defend the colony and tend to the growing larvae. Unlike queens and workers who develop from fertile eggs the male bees are born from unfertilized eggs and they leave the colony shortly after reaching adulthood to find a mate outside the nest and mating is their sole role in their new colony.
