These are Pink Finger Orchids - Caladenia Carnea. There are 3 different Finger orhids - white, pink and blue. The white ones and pink ones are still fairly common, but I haven't seen a blue one for over 10 years. I just hope they are not extinct.

Love Creeper ( Comesperma Volubile) gets its name from its habit of closely hugging the trees and shrubs it climbs over. These pretty, but tiny, blue flowers are common in Spring in the woodlands of Southern Australia. Found at Baluk Willam Reserve in Belgrave South, Victoria, Australia.

Flowers and all their beauty. Take the time to look closely and you'll notice the flower you pass by everyday has a personality. There's a small face watching you and if you acknowledge this you'll see if that face is approving or not. Strange you say. Try it and look close. Your busy world will open up to a smaller world beneath you that is actually quite huge and enormous in splendour.

The body of a cicada is similar to that of a violin or a guitar, in that much of it consists of empty, air-filled spaces that act like a resonating chamber and amplify the sound they generate. The loud noise we hear is the male’s mating call—females are silent. Each species of cicada has its own mating call, which can range from soft clicking to loud buzzing.The cicadas are a superfamily, the Cicadoidea, of the insects in the order Hemiptera. They are in the suborder Auchenorrhyncha, along with smaller jumping bugs such as leafhoppers and froghoppers.

A close up of Vesper, my cat. Her photo has been manipulated and reworked in the style of lace. An unusual piece for the astute cat lover. Vesper is the feline face of all images cat related.

This Hyacinth Macaw painted with gouache paint (also called opaque watercolors) would be a nice addition to the current tropical trend.

Intimate black and white portrait of the Saker Falcon. A small raptor. Would be sure to catch someone eye as a print, t-shirt, coaster, bag, mask and many more products.

I've posted photos of pink Common Heath (Epacris Impressa) before - but this was the best specimen I've seen! These pretty Spring flowers vary in colour from pure white, through pink to deep red. The pink variety is the State Floral Emblem of Victoria, Australia. Found at Baluk Willam reserve in Belgrave South.
