It is quite nice but I don't get a lot of time to appreciate it - I'm usually stuck in an office staring at a computer screen. :-(

My SO found this adult Ant Lion at her workplace and brought it home for me to photograph - she works in the middle of nowhere and has Eland and Blesbok wandering around the property.
