Mosquitoes bite you as if they are in some kind of love with you. Tonight I was bitten by the last mosquito of the year...it was determined to make it count too...

Asian Water Monitor

Wikipedia: The Asian water monitor (Varanus salvator) is a large varanid lizard native to South and Southeast Asia. It is one of the most common monitor lizards in Asia, ranging from coastal northeast India, Sri Lanka, mainland Southeast Asia to Indonesian islands where it lives close to water. It is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. It was described by Laurenti in 1768 and is among the largest squamates in the world.

The Asian water monitor is also called Malayan water monitor, common water monitor, two-banded monitor, rice lizard, ring lizard, plain lizard, no-mark lizard and water monitor.

MOSQUITO

Not many mosquitos on this snowy day in late May, but beautiful new growth on the willows along Rock Creek. At 10,370 ft (3160 m), this is one of the highest places one can drive in the Eastern Sierra. I am eager to hike here, hopefully this coming autumn, as I won't have to gain much elevation to feel high in the mountains.

Hope everyone has a great Wednesday! Thanks for stopping by and for all of your kind comments.

All I can think about when I look at this picture is how badly the mosquitos were attacking me at the time. I got there too early and was afraid I wouldn’t even make it to sunrise. After the sun finally came up I fled way sooner than I would have liked considering how long it took me to get up there. This is also where I was sitting when I took the wildflower image I posted a few days ago.

Acadia NP is broken up into three large sections. This is the easternmost -- Schoodic Peninsula. I will present not only bits of the national park, but also some towns and nature preserves.

As long as this little pesky mosquito stays on the pansy, we're all good!!

I was inspired to create these images by the so-called "conspiracy theorists". (German Schwurbler) On various Telegram channels, theories circulate that insects are being bred to secretly vaccinate people. 😂

The twelve-spotted skimmer is a common North American skimmer dragonfly, found in southern Canada and in all 48 of the contiguous U.S. states. (Wikipedia)

Twelve-spotted Skimmers and other dragonflies are expert and agile fliers. They will fly with a burst of speed. Then they may suddenly stop and hover like a helicopter. They will fly straight up and down and make accelerated changes in direction. Twelve-spotted Skimmers are active daytime fliers. They stay low and often fly among the sedges, rushes and marsh grasses.

Adult Twelve-spotted Skimmers will eat almost any soft-bodied flying insect including mosquitoes, flies, butterflies, moths, mayflies, and flying ants or termites. During their larval stage, naiads feed on a wide variety of aquatic insects, such as mosquito larvae, other aquatic fly larvae, mayfly larvae, and freshwater shrimp. They will also eat small fish and tadpoles. In its aquatic larva stage, it is a mosquito's worst nightmare – first, the aquatic dragonfly larvae zip around the pond eating mosquito larvae and pupae and then, just when the adult mosquitoes get out of the pond, along comes a hungry adult Twelve-spotted Skimmer!

We found this beauty warming itself along the trail. It allowed us to get surprisingly close.

Este mosquito es de un tamaño bastante inferior al de una mosca común , está sacada sujetando el posadero con la mano izquierda en alto y disparando con la derecha.

The mosquito remained calm to my great surprise...

Mosquitoes are members of a group of about 3,500 species of small flies within the family Culicidae.

This one has been photobombed by a Badger.

Heute ist es hier so heiß wie vor 2 Wochen in Greetsiel und auch die Mücken tanzen hier in großen Mengen.

Lasst es euch trotzdem gut gehen !

Today it is as hot here as it was 2 weeks ago in Greetsiel and also the mosquitoes dance here in large numbers.

Have a good time anyway!
