Zebra Heliconian (Heliconius charithonia) ingesting pollen from a Mexican Flame Vine. One of very few butterflies to ingest pollen as well as nectar.

Tortoise on road to Atheras Kefalonia, totally oblivious to the dangers of passing cars. I put him somewhere a little safer..

Crab Spider camouflaging itself with the whites of Jacquemontia flower, got its prey while a tiny fly rests on the prey's wing, completely ignorant!

I saw this dragonfly on my patio, sitting on a stake. I told him I'd never seen a red dragonfly before. He/she just stared back at me, for a very long time. So I took several pics.

This one's a little older; not sure if I shared it previously, but it's from when I had the butterfly habitat up the first time around. These were four of the five Monarchs that had emerged that morning. I think I ended up with six altogether that day.

What do you fertilize your coyotes with? Mine are not nearly as fat, sassy and handsome as yours
