  • Life On A Dead Tree ...

    It probably died long ago, the Acacia tree, but only matured recently to the point it has become a hot spot for various species of insect. I have seen how long hard wood takes to break down in our relatively dry climate, so expect this was an epic death.

    And as it broke down, the bark and the wood beneath, through time and exposure and ‘activity’, attracted more varied species that lived off the work of the ones before.

    Her ... laying.








    Him ... half leg missing.




    He guarding her while she lays.

          Thanks Isaac. Elsewhere someone said 'They are a species of Longhorn Beetle Amphirhoe decora'
