Visual Diary

Uh-Oh! I guess we won't be sitting there during recess today. By lunch time

this swarm had grown till it reached the ground in a funnel shape.

Council had it removed as it wasn't there the next day.

This wasp and his five friends are buzzing around the park bench where some of us have recess in the morning.

Obviously we're not a threat at the moment, as none of us has been stung.

This afternoon, I attended the Wolli Creek Preservation Society's teacher orientation bushwalk.

We were told information about the flora, fauna and Eora history of the area.

At times, I take photos which are relevant to our current class topic. I add these to my class photo set.

I like how lacewings suspend their eggs from foliage. I have even noticed them on my mum's fly-screen security door. The reason for these individual egg strands is that lacewings are cannibalistic and separating the eggs ensures the larvae don't eat each other upon hatching.

As I walked to the carpark after work, I noticed this

bee enjoying the weeds. I didn't get as close as I would've liked,

because the bee kept flying from one flower to the next.
