I remember allowing a bee to sting the back of my hand just to prove that they always rotate in an anticlockwise direction in order to rip the sting from their abdomen.Mosurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14786494432479216149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19288377.post-55441762139980552942008-08-01T22:16:00.000+10:002008-08-01T22:16:00.000+10:00Hi Denis,Sorry to be away for so long, though I am...Hi Denis,<BR/>Sorry to be away for so long, though I am slowly getting back into it.<BR/>Glad to see you survived the leech attack!...lol<BR/>Not too many down here...<BR/>Very nice captures as always :)<BR/>cheers,<BR/><BR/>daveDBS Young Photographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12919496005905774971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19288377.post-63191213610956491622008-07-30T15:11:00.000+10:002008-07-30T15:11:00.000+10:00Hi DuncanI think I have caught your "Lurgie".Hope ...Hi Duncan<BR/>I think I have caught your "Lurgie".<BR/>Hope you are back and out again soon, Helmets sound good. I only get the small autumn flowered C. acontiflorus up here. But down on the coast they get the winter/spring flowering species. Great flowers. They always make me laugh. So comical.<BR/>DenisDenis Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10031115992910569116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19288377.post-40574730082984753042008-07-30T09:24:00.000+10:002008-07-30T09:24:00.000+10:00What a great time you're having with the orchids D...What a great time you're having with the orchids Denis, they take a bit of beating don't they. I'm looking forward to when I can get out looking again, maybe in a weeks time, the helmets are flowering.Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12182951711946882353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19288377.post-2340583579634354522008-07-29T21:04:00.000+10:002008-07-29T21:04:00.000+10:00Hi BethThanks.Its good to have loyal readers, like...Hi Beth<BR/>Thanks.<BR/>Its good to have loyal readers, like you and Lynn, from the local area, as well as other Nature Bloggers from further afield.<BR/>DenisDenis Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10031115992910569116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19288377.post-67448934379993692182008-07-29T13:37:00.000+10:002008-07-29T13:37:00.000+10:00Thank-you Denis for sharing your expeditions with ...Thank-you Denis for sharing your expeditions with us.
