Warmbaths - Part 8 Final

The clouds were building up for a storm and the ant seemed to sense it as they were taking there larvae somewhere else, maybe to higher ground.
This was on my tent but I do not have a clue what it is.
A Wattle Chafer who looks like it might be carrying eggs.
Maybe some kind of Rove Beetle? It look quite a nasty one.
I wonder if the piece of grass was to help him balancing on the grass stem? LOL!!
It was getting to summer and the Acacia trees had almost finished blooming and were getting their seed pods.
A ladybug/ladybird.
All in all the four days spent there well worth it as I found a wonderful variety of bugs. I should go back again soon.....
