The unmentionable has quite a horn :shock:

The "Not a Spotted Maize Beetle" has some very nice colours \O
Thanks Lis, I guess that horn is worth a few hundred thousand dollars unfortunately :-(

Lovely Boubou, one of my soft spot birdies O\/ O\/ O\/

And the beetle with the yellow clubbed antennae which are very stylish is a Blister Beetle (Hycleus lugens)
Not sure that any of the Shrikes are my favourites :no: but they do come in some wonderful colour schemes :yes:

Thanks for the ID \O

A pretty bug, for a change! O/\

What does "up at Sparrows" mean? :-? -O- -O-
Our resident photograpic expert says "not bad", I'm honoured ^0^

Pick that bug up, I dare you :twisted:

And yes, you have had a lot of luck with your animal sightings and bugs... great pictures as well BT
Like the close up of the spider and cicada, damselfly and not the cricket... I see enough of them in Pretoria. There are one bug that I particularly don't like seeing in the Park and that is a cockroach... they can steer clear...
Our sightings improved once we got to Croc! I agree with you about Cockroaches - YUK!
