The prettiest Thomisidae I have seen in the flesh.
She was right up top of my Butterfly bush and if it was not for the fact that I pulled down a branch to have a look I would have never known.
Last year I seen them in white. I never knew they could be this color.
To gather the images I used manual hand held focus stacking.
Here are my settings
1/80th ||| F11 ||| ISO 200 ||| Flash @ 1/64 +0.4
I bought her into my living room and made some shots of her. She will be placed back in my garden where I found her.
I used some purple felt for the background.

Superb Fairy-wren
Scientific Name: Malurus cyaneus
Description: Adult male Superb Fairy-wrens are among the most brightly coloured of the species, especially during the breeding season. They have rich blue and black plumage above and on the throat. The belly is grey-white and the bill is black. Females and young birds are mostly brown above with a dull red-orange area around the eye and a brown bill. Females have a pale greenish gloss, absent in young birds, on the otherwise brown tail. The legs are brown in both sexes. Males from further inland and in the south-west of the range have more blue on the back and underparts.
Similar species: Several other species of fairy-wren are found in Australia. The males of each species are quite distinct, but the females and young birds are often difficult to separate. Of the species that overlap in range with the Superb Fairy-wren, the female White-winged Fairy-wren Malurus leucopterus and Red-backed Fairy-wren M. melanocephalus lacks the chestnut colour around the eye, while the female Variegated Fairy-wren M. lamberti has a dull grey-blue wash. Both the Superb and White-winged Fairy-wrens are similar in size. The Variegated Fairy-wren is slightly larger in size and has a longer tail.
Distribution: Superb Fairy-wrens are found south of the Tropic of Capricorn through eastern Australia and Tasmania to the south-eastern corner of South Australia.
Habitat: Seen in most habitat types where suitable dense cover and low shrubs occur. They are common in urban parks and gardens, and can be seen in small social groups. These groups normally consist of one dominant male and several females and young birds.
Feeding: Superb Fairy-wrens feed on insects and other small arthropods. These are caught mostly on the ground, but may also be taken from low bushes. Feeding takes place in small social groups.
Breeding: The nest is a dome-shaped structure of grasses and other fine material. It is usually placed in a low bush and is constructed by the female. The female incubates the eggs alone, but both sexes feed the young. Other members of the group will also help with the feeding of the young.
Male Superb Fairy-wrens have been labelled as 'the least faithful birds in the world'. Females may be courted by up to 13 males in half an hour, and 76% of young are sired by males from outside the social group.
Calls: The Superb Fairy-wren gives a series of high pitched trills, which are given by both sexes. The male often extends these trills into song.
Minimum Size: 13cm
Maximum Size: 14cm
Average size: 14cm
Average weight: 10g
Clutch Size: Three to four.

The Alice River in central Queensland, Australia rises on the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range. It has been very dry so the river is a series of waterholes - it needs a good flush. You can see the water marks on the trees from previous flows. The river flows in a south-westerly direction towards Isisford and its confluence with the Barcoo River to later form Cooper Creek. Barcaldine is located on Lagoon Creek, which flows into the Alice River.

Thanks to everyone who took the trouble to view, comment or fave.
Thanks to Flickr I was made aware of this place this year.
Since then I've seen it in books too - so I'm sorry to say it's a bit of an iconic or cliched shot which I always prefer to avoid but they keep calling to me unfortunately :(
Even though I spent many holidays in Plymouth for the first 16 years of my life & most of my summers in Devon for the last 15 years, this week was the first time I'd ever been to this spot - great how Flickr lets us see so many places through everyone else's eyes (& lenses) & inspires us to get out there & explore.
When I first saw pictures of this, the perspective made me think the post was about 18 inches high - the kind of thing you sometimes get in a garden to mark the grave of a small family pet like a hamster, guinea pig or gerbil - but it's actually very big.
Commonly known as the Windy Post this chunk of granite is around 7 feet tall but despite the misleading name the reason it is leaning is not down to the wild Dartmoor winds.
You see, Dartmoor ponies are quite poorly equipped to deal with itchiness.
Unlike human hands and fingers which are extremely sophisticated both in terms of placement and application of pressure - ponies hooves are far too unwieldy & crude for localised scratching - and of course they can't reach all over the pony's body.
The only other major tool in the pony's scratching armoury is a vigorously whipping tail action, but even this together with hooves leaves large areas unscratchable.
For this reason Dartmoor ponies have been known to rub themselves against this post to relieve any urgently itchy areas - being intelligent animals they usually rub downhill allowing gravity to apply pressure and do most of the work as they rub gently backwards and forwards.
Over the last several hundred years this has caused the post to lean downwards :)
I just managed to get here about an hour before sunset and couldn't believe my luck that there were some great clouds & crepuscular Rays appearing to highlight the post!
Shortly after this the rain came down very heavily & the sunset was very poor but was grateful for this light & reflections.
- must dash my wife has just caught me on Flickr again which means another spanking is imminent :(

Thanks for the comments, faves and visits
This evocative photo captures a rustic trading post set against the rugged backdrop of a desert landscape. The building's weathered wood and metal roof exude a sense of timelessness, reminiscent of the Old West. Signs on the facade, including "West Forty Land & Cattle Company," add authenticity to the scene, while the solitary cactus in the foreground enhances the desolate charm of the location. The monochromatic blue filter lends a nostalgic, almost ghostly quality to the image, evoking memories of a bygone era where such outposts were bustling hubs of activity amidst the harsh desert environment.

Thank you so much for your comments, awards and invites. All are appreciated!
All comments and constructive criticism welcome Thanks!

Comment ça "aux Carreaux" avec une majuscule et un pluriel ?
Eh oui parce que la plaque de rue visible dans l'image indique la ruelle portant le doux nom de rue des Carreaux, alors qu'un conducteur de camionnette s'apprêtant à partir fume à la fenêtre, carreau baissé...
Fumeuse spéculation...

Sacred Kingfisher
Scientific Name: Todiramphus sanctus
Description: The Sacred Kingfisher is a medium sized kingfisher. It has a turquoise back, turquoise blue rump and tail, buff-white underparts and a broad cream collar. There is a broad black eye stripe extending from bill to nape of neck. Both sexes are similar, although the female is generally lighter with duller upper parts. Young birds are similar to the female, but have varying amounts of rusty-brown edging to feathers on the collar and underparts, and buff edges on the wing coverts.
Distribution: The Sacred Kingfisher is common and familiar throughout the coastal regions of mainland Australia and less common throughout Tasmania. The species is also found on islands from Australasia to Indonesia and New Zealand.
Habitat: The Sacred Kingfisher inhabits woodlands, mangroves and paperbark forests, tall open eucalypt forest and melaleuca forest.
Seasonal movements: In Australia, Sacred Kingfishers spend the winter in the north of their range and return south in the spring to breed.
Feeding: Sacred Kingfishers forage mainly on the land, only occasionally capturing prey in the water. They feed on crustaceans, reptiles, insects and their larvae and, infrequently, fish. The birds perch on low exposed branch on the lookout for prey. Once prey is located, the Sacred Kingfisher swoops down and grasps it in its bill, returning to the perch to eat it.
Breeding: For most of the year Sacred Kingfishers are mainly solitary, pairing only for the breeding season. Usually two clutches are laid in a season. Both sexes excavate the nest, which is normally a burrow in a termite mound, hollow branch or river bank. The nest chamber is unlined and can be up to 20m above the ground. Both sexes also incubate the eggs and care for the young.
Calls: The voice of the Sacred Kingfisher is a loud "ek ek ek ek" repeated continuously throughout breeding season. Birds also give a "kee kee kee" in excitement and a series of chirring, scolding notes when alarmed.
Minimum Size: 19cm
Maximum Size: 24cm
Average size: 21cm
Average weight: 45g
Breeding season: September to December; occasionally extended to March, if conditions are favourable.
Clutch Size: 3 to 6
Incubation: 18 days
Nestling Period: 26 days
