This has to be a very delicious plant - for insects that is!

These photos were taken from within my car and a great deal of zooming was done,

 So many bugs....

.... with even more coming in to land!

But Mr Hair Bottomed Fly stole the scene.

This half dead Praying Mantis was hanging onto a Yucca leaf. I could not help but notice the beautiful colours and patterns of the abdomen and the underside of the folded lacy wings

My resolution for 2015: Get this blog up to date and post at least once a month!

Sorting through hundreds of photos for the updates was not an easy task, but interesting.

These first two photos were taken earlier in the year but I can't recall posting them.

I decided that they would make a good start for May

 For those who are unfamiliar with Hluhluwe Imfolozi Park: Livestock on route to the Park is a major problem and one has to be extremely careful. This goat sets a perfect example of 'owning the road'

Taken on our first trip to the Park in April - 'Car Guard' at Hilltop Camp :)
