i took a drive along the Angora Range Rd partly to see what the fires on other side of it were doing, then noticed all the creatures on the ever-lasting flowers so started snapping away, 378 pictures later i selected a few to share on here
no rain predicted round here this week, though thunder storms are likely, still expecting high 30 degrees over next three days which is probably not good

The blue ant (Diamma bicolor, also known as the blue-ant or bluebottle) is, despite its name and its appearance, not an ant at all, but rather a species of large solitary parasitic wasp sometimes known as a flower wasp. It is a native of south and southeast Australia, including the Australian states of Tasmania, New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia.



Pest Status:

Female has a very painful sting.

Warning:

Keep clear of blue ants. They sting severely.


First Aid:

Ice pack applied to sting site.
