Odds and ends - Part 10

He sure is lumpy!! If it was not for the legs I would think him a nut of some kind.

Mating season for the beetles on Acacia flowers.

A pretty corner of someones garden.

The Hibiscus always make a wonderful show here and they come in the most beautiful colours. Click here for some interesting info and more pictures of them.

What a gorgeous rose!!

A wild flower, small and so perfect.

This butterfly is tiny, about the size of a 1c piece.
