Ah, those lazy late-summer days....
...a bit of pollinating....
...suckin' down some fresh nectar.....
...then the next thing you know, CHOMP and you are breakfast for a stick insect....
....torn limb from limb...
... guts ripped out ....
...brains sucked out...
....wings ripped out of their sockets...
...I guess the stick insects enjoy their lazy late-summer days in the garden too, snacking on unwary bees.
These photos are from Andrius, who spotted these guys in his back yard.
Most likely it's one of the Baghdad bees, (within 100m of the hive),
but I'll do a head count later and check.
Stay away from the lavender, girls!
