Large insect, small flower 2012-05-06 I'm not sure what kind of insect this is (it doesn't have a glowing tail), but it sure had a hard time getting on top of this flower in our lawn. I'm not sure whether it got any nectar at all. Enjoy your day! And thanks for the comments on my organ pipes.
This picture needs audio 2012-04-28 It is mating season along the edges of the slow-moving waters in the Lobau park near me. This frog is one of many that 'accompanied' my walk in the park yesterday this croaks and gurgles. This one is pretending to be part of the natural cover in a hidden corner of water. Many thanks for the comments on yesterday's landscape shot.
Winter Reeds 2012-01-29 Yesterday was one of the first really freezing but bright days along the Danube. Reeds abound along the Danube shores, where low wetlands host a multitude of animal and plant life. This view was taken practically at the border of Austria and Slovakia in the afternoon sun. Many thanks for the comments on the winter jogger. I was about 260m above her on a tower.
