⚠️ Caution: may contain bugs
While looking for a cicada I could hear hiding in some grass this afternoon, I found a male Peacock Jumping Spider. This is one of my all-time favourite animals, so finding one near my own house had me buzzing more than the cicada I eventually found nearby. Isn't he stunning? 😍

Share a picture you took that you think is Pinterest worthy 🫶🏻

While #bugoftheday was fun, it was also very draining to do it every day. I think just posting when I feel like it or when I find something cool suits me better.
As such, here's something I found today. I'm not certain what this is, but it kinda looks like some sort of assassin bug.

STOP! 🛑

Mandatory wallpaper check!

This is the Wren I did for my mum for Mother's day. I liked how it turned out, so I made it my background.

A couple of spring babies to brighten your day.
I found these cute little guys in a nest their parents built under a shelf in my garden. Pic 2 is the closest one I've managed to get of an adult (too quick for me).
Pretty sure they're cuckooshrikes, but I could be wrong.

Just found out that there's a T Rex version of Spider-Man, and I think he might already be my favourite.

Looks like he's been to...

Some more experimenting/ practice drawing with only coloured pencils (no grey lead outline)
This is based on a local species of one of my favourite flowers, the Grevillea.

Share a cartoon from the past that kids today probably never heard of.

It's been ages since I did some actual drawing, so here is an Azure Kingfisher I just drew.
One of these beauties visited my house a couple of days ago for the first time that I can remember. Didn't have my camera with me, though, and it flew off before I could get it 😭

Fellow #magicthegathering players: you ever have one of those games where everything just works?
I don't think I've ever had so many creatures at once before 😆
(Btw, in my group we draw tokens if we don't have the right ones - my friend drew the frogs, I did the others)

Quote your fave Pokémon & Digimon and compare!

Mudkip and Magnamon.

Still remember going to see Digimon The Movie at the cinema back in 2000, which is around the time I got the Magnamon action figure.

Many happy memories of destroying cities and eating everything in sight co-op with my sister.

I love a good video game photo mode 📷
(Game: Immortals Fenyx Rising)

Me and Kitty hope you're feeling better soon.

So I may have started Immortals Fenyx Rising again as a less frenetic alternative to Doom The Dark Ages for when I don't feel like ripping and tearing.
I know it takes a lot of inspiration from BotW, but that game never clicked for me. I honestly like this one much better.

I have a few pics on rotate, but this is my favourite

Here I am getting back into drawing birds again.
This is a White-faced Heron, one of a couple of heron species that I sometimes see around home. A very elegant looking bird, don't you think?

This is the view from the farm in pretty much every direction at the moment. Makes me glad I don't have any allergies or hayfever.

I have achieved the perfect score 😈
