Carpenter Bee (Xylocopa Violacea) & Flower Crab Spider (Misumena Vatia) on iris
My best photos are here: www.lacerta-bilineata.com/ticino-best-photos-of-southern-...
More TICINO/TESSIN Wildlife Photos (all taken in my garden in Monteggio/Ti, Switzerland): it.lacerta-bilineata.com/ramarro-occidentale-lacerta-bili... (the website exists in ESPAÑOL, FRANÇAIS, ITALIANO, ENGLISH, DEUTSCH)
My latest ANIMAL VIDEO (warning, it's a bit shocking): www.youtube.com/watch?v=4T2-Xszz7FI
ABOUT THE PHOTO:
When I look at my (far too) tiny gallery of photos, it's hard not to note the fact that there is an abundance of green - and very little else colorwise. It's not that I don't have other photos with slightly more color variation, but I started out here a year ago with the idea of dedicating my entire Flickr page exclusively to the western green lizard (Lacerta bilineata), because that's also the main focus of my website of the same name.
But just as with the site - which now has an entire page dedicated to other fauna from the Lacerta bilineata habitat - I realized that it's more fun to present all the creatures big and small I find in my garden and its immediate surroundings. I still will continue to upload many more photos of my favorite green reptile, but it's variation that makes the world (and my garden) interesting, and the same goes for my Flickr gallery. I thought this gorgeous iris with its yellow and violet tones would fit nicely between all the green, and the two arthropods it hosts are both very typical residents of the Lacerta bilineata habitat.
The carpenter bee is obviously too much of a whopper of a meal for this tiny male flower crab spider (and it also comes with a sting ;-), and I guess if this were a cartoon you'd see a very relieved spider face and a huge "Thank you Lord!* in the speech bubble above it because this "Behemoth" of a bee landed on the other side of that iris :-) . But the carpenter bee might have gotten lucky too that it didn't meet the dwarf's old lady: female flower crab spiders are notorious for attacking and overwhelming much bigger prey than themselves, and although I haven't seen one catching a carpenter bee yet, I definitely wouldn't rule it out.
ABOUT THE SPECIES (from Wikipedia):
XYLOCOPA VIOLACEA is the common European species of carpenter bee, and one of the largest bees in Europe. It is also native to Asia. Like most members of the genus Xylocopa, it makes its nests in dead wood. It is not particularly aggressive, and will attack only if forced to.
These bees hibernate over winter and re-emerge in spring, usually around April or May. Hibernation is undertaken by the adults in wood where there are abandoned nest tunnels. In late spring or early summer, they may be seen around searching for mates and suitable nesting sites. After mating, the gravid females bore tunnels in dead wood, which is where the name "carpenter bee" comes from, although old nest tunnels may be used.
Like other solitary bees, the female creates the nest alone. The eggs are laid within a series of small cells, each of which is supplied with a pollen ball for the larvae to feed upon. The adults emerge in late summer then hibernate until the following year
MISUMENA VATIA is a species of crab spider with a holarctic distribution. They are called crab spiders because of their unique ability to walk sideways as well as forwards and backwards.
Females can grow up to 10 mm (0.39 in) while males are quite small, reaching 5 mm (0.20 in) at most. Younger females especially, which may hunt on a variety of flowers such as daisies and sunflowers, have a strong tendency to adapt to the color of the surrounding flower. However, the color-changing process is not instant and can require up to 25 days to complete.
Misumena vatia feed on common insects, often consuming prey much larger than themselves. They use venom to immobilize their prey, though they are harmless to humans.
Greetings to all of you, stay heathly and safe and have a wonderful weekend!
Onomastics & Santorini's Colours
She is so beautiful and has so many names.
*Calliste or Kallisti
The Island was first called Kalliste, meaning "the most beautiful".
*Thira or Thera
In antiquity the island's name was Thera. It was named after Theras,son of Autesion,who was the descendant of Polyneikes.
Theras brought with him Mycaenians from Sparta and made the island a colony of the Lacedaemonians.
* Strogili
Another ancient name referring to Santorini was Strogili. Strogili means "rounded" because of the round shape of the group of islands which form Santorini.
*Santorini
Santorini has a Latin root,it was given by the Venetians who after the Fourth Crusade,1204, had dominion over the island and named it after the Chapel of Santa Irini.
♥ I call Her Kallisti,She is so Beautiful ...

The female is a little larger than the male (I believe) but it’s still very difficult to tell which is which. These guys mate for life which is a lovely idea…Maybe this is just a romantic notion and, possibly, they get sick of the sight of each other after a wee while. Well, since they’re genetically pre-programmed to stick together, unlucky for some!
However, I prefer to think of them as eternally linked and loving it.
Here, they were hanging around on my friends’ old chimney pots, about two miles down the hill from my house. I love the blue-black colouring and their light-bright eyes.

If that's all we have
You will find
We need nothing more…”

A great little skybox with far more to offer than can be seen in just this one shot, see below for full details:

I am thankful & blessed to have met my best friend here on Flickr.
Hansi, my kindest, sweet friend and I have joined to make a production
company called "Silver Feather Productions" photography & design
devoted to Love.
Here is the cover of our first book..."We are all Amma's children" United in Love
Tomorrow, I will go on a retreat for a week in ABQ, New Mexico to be with Amma
"The hugging Saint"....Amma teaches Love...she has been my teacher for just over
10 years.
A year & a half ago I went to India to make the photographs for this book.
While I was there the Tsunami came to Kerala, India. It destroyed the village
just outside Amma's Ashram walls & flooded the Ashram.
I worked to photograph in the relief camps...because right away Amma
started feeding, clothing & giving medical care to thousands &
thousands of people.
So...the book was put on hold. I worked last year with my images from
the tsunami, to raise money for relief.
Hansi & I put this book at Amma's feet. We hope that it is published
And that the money from the sales of it can help children everywhere.
The book is full of Amma quotes on childhood & Love & full of photos
of children from India & other parts of the world. It is full of beautiful
design & color...it is full of Love.
Sending You all Love....we shall see what Amma says about this
project soon....I will be on & off Flickr...{mostly off} for the next week.
Please keep this project in your hearts & hold it there.
Deep thanks....
Om Shanti, Mahita

When I wake up in the morning, love
And the sunlight hurts my eyes
And something without warning, love
Bears heavy on my mind
Then I look at you
And the world's alright with me
Just one look at you
And I know it's gonna be
A lovely day (lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)
(Lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)
A lovely day (lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)
(Lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)
When the day that lies ahead of me
Seems impossible to face
When someone else instead of me
Always seems to know the way
Then I look at you
And the world's alright with me
Just one look at you
And I know it's gonna be
A lovely day (lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)
(Lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)
A lovely day (lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)
(Lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)
When the day that lies ahead of me
Seems impossible to face
And when someone else instead of me
Always seems to know the way

Sans doute l’une des plus belles Petites cités de Caractère de Bretagne, Rochefort-en-Terre invite à un voyage dans le temps. Ses remparts, son château et ses demeures anciennes sont à contempler ! Admirablement fleurie, la ville s’anime toute l’année de jolies boutiques, de galeries et d’échoppes d’artisans d’art.
Située à 35 km à l'est de Vannes, sur une butte rocheuse dominant la vallée du Gueuzon, la cité bretonne de Rochefort-en-Terre donne une impression d'homogénéité malgré la diversité des courants architecturaux qui s'y sont exprimés : maisons à pans de bois, bâtiments de style gothique, demeures Renaissance, hôtels classiques, architecture XIXème... C'est la pierre, ici omniprésente, qui fait le trait d'union entre ces différents témoignages de l'Histoire.

Ogni giorno è diverso dall’altro, ogni alba porta con sè il suo speciale miracolo, il suo istante magico, in cui si distruggono gli universi passati e nascono nuove stelle. I Navajo,infatti, insegnano ai loro bambini che ogni mattina il sole che sorge e’ un sole nuovo. Nasce ogni giorno, vive solo per quel giorno, muore alla sera e non ritornera’ piu’. Dicono ai loro piccoli: Il sole ha solo questo giorno, un giorno. Vivi bene la tua vita in modo che il sole non abbia sprecato il suo tempo prezioso.
