Stinger but he does pollinate, too.

This subspecies is endemic to Newfoundland; its host plant is scotch lovage and cow parsnip.

This moth was hanging out on my door when I came home late one night. I was shocked with how large it was. I have not personally seen a moth of this size before.

...or ladybug, or ladybeetle. This one seemed to be spending a lot of time cleaning its mouth. I was trying to catch the moment of takeoff. Maybe next time...

I have found these chaps exceedingly difficult to photograph. I have shed loads of out of focus shots. However perseverance pays. In focus at last.

This big male Orchard Swallowtail was resting in a shady spot in our Brisbane garden. The wingspan on the males can be up to 102 mm.

Just caught sight of this wasp flying up from some ground elder to a bush oak leaf with prey. By the time I got the camera on it, the head and abdomen had gone and it was trimming off the wings and legs before taking it back to the nest for the grubs to eat
