I just removed a tick for the first time with this tool. It indeed works perfectly even for the tiniest ticks. It pulled it off in one piece and alive. Thanks again for the tip.

A lovely coral fungus growing out of the side of a rotten log. Maybe Ramaria stricta.

Metallyticus splendidus, the famous Metal mantis, is absurdly iridescent. Something that is extremely rare in mantids. The wings can appear metallic red or green depending on the angle. #mantis #insects #wildlife #nature #prayingmantis

Absolutely a top 5 praying mantis (and that is saying something because theyβre all extremely cool).
Seems challenging for a predator to have the stealth of a disco ball.

Waxlip orchid ((Glossodia / Caladenia major) with sundew (Drosera sp. - probably D. auriculata) near Mallacoota,VIC. Lots of both sundews and orchids out here in coastal heathland heading into spring - but hot/dry weather since then has seen both suffer a bit in recent weeks #orchids #sundews
