These Vygie flowers always seem to have a light shining from within.

The Hoverfly is a regular visitor.

12.12.12 (but sadly not @ 12 :12)

My plan was to take a photo at exactly 12 minutes past twelve today. Unfortunately I got a bit busy at school and the moment passed me by!  Gone! An opportunity that I will never have again. Last year I was privileged to take a photo at 11:11 of a young lady that turned 11 on 11.11.11. 

When I arrived home from school today(with the whole office packed into my car - just in case I missed work too much!) this Blue headed Agama was hanging around the carport next door. 

I have seen it around often but not been able to get a photo.

This guy was lucky enough to survive the terrible ordeal of not being able to eat  

He turned his head in all directions as if to show off the scar. 

One wonders about the cause of such an injury.

Nesting in the Chili Tree.

How amazing is the construction of this spider's nest!

The babies can be clearly seen in the close-up below.

Mommy can also be seen towards the top under the web.

These look like Lynx Spiders, but I am not sure.

I planned to take another photo this afternoon, but unfortunately did not have time to do so.

We have had quite a lot of rain - hopefully I can get another shot at the babies tomorrow.
