This female Common Whitetail Dragonfly finally settled down for a spell and let me photograph her. The male which has much more white on its body is more skittish and harder to track down. Dragonflies are man’s friend in that they eat tons of annoying and harmful mosquitoes; hence their other name—mosquito hawks.

THE SUBJECT:This spectacular flutterer is a wonderful specimen of Tisiphone abeona albifascia (Varied Sword-grass Brown Butterfly), a common Aussie species. THE LOCATION: / My subject was photographed alongside the track leading to Perch Hole the Queen’s Lake Nature Reserve, North Haven, just south of Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia, on a slightly overcast autumn afternoon. THE MAKING OF ‘Tisiphone abeona albifascia (Varied Sword-grass Brown Butterfly)’: / There not much to shoot that day and I was almost back to my car when lo and behold this beautiful butterfly zipped past in front of me and landed about three feet (one meter) away. Very rarely do I have much luck in photographing butterflies in the wild but this time I had enough time to move a little closer, set the camera up and make just one shot before it flew away. I am a bit disappointed that I could not have a little more time as the image seems just a little soft even after three applications of unsharpen mask but am still happy with this one and it should print well. / PS: By the way there was very little saturation made to this image. The butterfly really is this brilliant. / Fuji S9600: RAW, Macro, Manual focus, f/8 @ 1/60sec, ISO80, Low powered flash, Hand held. / S7RAW & Photoshop CS.

The Emu is Australia’s tallest native bird. Emus are easy to identify. Adult Emus are covered with shaggy grey-brown feathers except for the neck and head, which are largely naked and bluish-black. The wings are greatly reduced, but the legs are long and powerful. Each foot has three forward-facing toes and no hind toe. Emus eat fruits, seeds, growing shoots of plants, insects, other small animals, and animal droppings. Their calls consist of booming, drumming and grunting. Booming is created in an inflatable neck sac, and can be heard up to 2km away.

An Orange-Barred Sulphur, Phoebis Philea, is sipping nectar from a flower Identification: Upperside of male bright yellow-orange; forewing has red-orange bar and hindwing has red-orange outer margin. The female, much larger than the male, has two forms, one off-white and the other yellow-orange. Both have upperside of forewing with solid black cell spot and a submarginal row of broken black smudges.

It also has white-ringed reddish spots. Habitat: Open lowland sites such as forest edges, city gardens, parks, and road edges. Interesting Facts: Males of this species have a broad orange bar on the forewing, this gives rise to its common name. Range: Lowland tropical America, Brazil, Florida and the keys, rare but seen in Northeast states. Extremely vagrant in Colorado, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Connecticut.

The white-tailed spider, (common species are Lampona cylindrata, Lampona murina) are medium-sized spiders from southern and eastern Australia, so named because of the whitish tips at the end of their abdomens. They have been introduced to New Zealand where they are considered a household pest. By comparison with other well-known Australian spiders, white-tailed spiders do not appear to be particularly numerous, but may be responsible for a disproportionately high number of spider-bites because of their habits. Unlike the black house spider and the redback which are often seen in or around dwellings in a web, the white-tailed spider wanders around and may be encountered unexpectedly. Of the 130 recently-monitored cases, several spiders had been picked up off the floor accidentally by short sighted persons thinking that they were something else. More than 60% of the victims had been bitten by spiders that had got into clothing, into folded towels and into beds. In several more cases they were in shoes. Information on the white-tail species is limited as they are only found in Australia and New Zealand with only a limited number of researchers working in the field. Dr Geoffrey Isbister from the University of Newcastle in Australia performed a study monitoring 130 cases of arachnologist identified white tailed spider bites, the study reported no incidents of necrosis, leading researchers to believe that such cases are a extremely rare outcome for a white-tailed spider bite. The major effects from a bite were local pain, a red mark, local swelling, and itchiness, rarely systemic effects of nausea, vomiting, malaise, or headache occurred. Source from Wiki

Just finished tonight, marking the end of my painting hiatus. Yay… Created this on a 12×16 flatboard canvas with acrylic paints. Used a combination of tools including a random assortment of paintbrushes, scissors, a dish sponge, orange netting, a spatula, a cat’s paw and my own hands. It took maybe 6 hours total to finish this, taking into account the long drying stages due to the thicker textures of the paint. I really didn’t have any specific direction I wanted to take this piece, just winged it the whole way through. It doesn’t bother me if people don’t appreciate it, I know it’s an odd painting to say the least, but I enjoy it and it brings a smile to my face when I look at it.
