Messing around with a new technique, doing combined natural light and flash focus stack of unknown parasitoid wasp. Was observed taking massive beetles much larger than itself from a tree in a controlled fall and dragging them into a burrow in muddy soil next to mangroves, norman creek brisbane.

Enough to make clam chowder.

When you drive on Highway 50 through southern Nevada, there is just NOTHING there! For hours and hours, there are endless barbed wire fences on both sides, no cattle that I ever saw, no cross roads, no towns ... nothing but the road in front of you with an occasional car or truck zooming along at 75 mph.

I really wanted to pull over and walk around in this landscape for half an hour at least and get a little taste of it, but as strange as it may sound - with all this open space - there was no easy way to pull over. Beside the road the dirt slanted downwards and you wouldn't want to get caught on a precarious rock or in a hole, especially with the occasional big 18-wheeler truck whizzing by. There were dirt roads here and there ... but they seemed to be private ranch roads and I felt like I might get shot for trespassing if I tried to walk my dog there! So I ended up being trapped between two endless lines of barbed wire fence with no option but to keep driving.

Until we finally hit a "rest stop," which really was simply an extra little paved area, nothing more. Blanca finally could get out on leash at least and explore. She quickly found something exciting as there were mysterious holes in the ground everywhere! Something, or someone, lived down there and she was going to dig them out! I let her dig for a while but did not really know what was down there, so eventually broke it off. I still don't know who was down there!

pardon my flickr friends for not a very good macro...

i thank you for the visits ,fave and notes!!

God bless everybody.

This is the site for a proposed Harley Davidson dealership. They're moving right along. They may have some sediment control and drainage challenges as it's adjacent to a water tower, a new Mercedes dealership, a new nursing school, some apartments, a migratory path and a natural protected area, but so far they're doing great (insert stress cracks here).

In Suttons Bay, Michigan. After being pounded by high winds and snow for days, the sun came out this morning and all is well.

Where I live now, we don't seem to have very many windmills so I've had to go digging into the archives!

I got what you need, you feelin' lonely?

I need you to hold me

I hope you mean everything that you told me

I'll try to come back to you, girl, I'm sorry

If you miss me, just call me

You try to diss me 'cause you salty

Did this on my own, it's all me

I just wish that you would call me

Call me

I just wish that you would call me up

Wish that you would call me

I think this the female of a pair of burrowing owls. They've been seen together, for several days now, flying between a couple of burrows that seem abandoned. On Sunday, that included a lot of copulation. After one mating, this bird came over and started scratching out a burrow, sat down in it and then flew away.

I think that in this soil, they'll take an abandoned burrow, but she'll improve it to her tastes, down inside. I suspect that this is ritual digging, that's part of a mating routine.
