Is there anything more awe-inspiring than seeing a creature from your wishlist!?
Yesterday I went ice skating for the first time and had an impressive fall, whacking my head HARD on the ice, forcing me to rest today and thank goodness for that!
I was out on the back patio, lying down on the daybed, when I heard a jet engine near my Blue Tongue Plant. It was a Great Carpenter Bee! This was the next native bee on my wishlist.
She is Australia’s largest bee and can fly up to 200 kilometres (124 miles) per hour. Hard to photograph? Absolutely! I only hope she visits again so that I can keep trying to get that perfect shot!
And now I am heading back outside to watch the Blue Tongue Plant in the hope of another wonderous awe moment (and some good photos)!
