#730 - Some Macro Phone Shots for Tuesday.
Greetings dearest Hiveans. It's my first night of work tonight and also my last week in the night shift. I will be transitioning to afternoon schedule next week. So it's just a week left of sleepless days. Early today since my son os not going to school yet, my wife and I went out for an early walk. I also did a quick jogging for a few rounds near the river area.
Yesterday evening after our dinner, I helped my father guide my mother upstairs at the house of my uncle. They plan to go back to the province where my mother can continue to rest and recover. Hopefully by Friday she can have the strength to travel because the trip going to our province via bus is around eight hours or more depending on the traffic condition. Bus is usually night trips, there are those day trips but those buses are destined to other provinces.
Anyways, that's about some of my ongoing life things and now let's move on to our daily shots. When I was alone back in the river where we usually go to for walks either in the early morning or late in the afternoon. One time I was there late in the afternoon I checked the meadows area where the weeds or wild plants are and found a wild flower that has this lovely white tiny moth, not a butterfly which are usually bigger in size. The moth was on top of the wilted flower, the seeds are almost gone also but the dried up flower still has a visitor even though it doesn't have any nectar anymore nor it has the ability to produce at this stage. Here's three images of that lovely white critter.
Then on the adjacent side just a few steps are nipa plants which are growing abundantly because the area hasn't been weeded out by weed trimmers using their machines. On one of the nipa leaves is this gray fly which also bites a punch. I have been bitten by it's kind before in the province. I also usually see this kind of fly near carabaos, they seem to enjoy the company of those industrious mammals and bite them also, maybe their blood is good source of food for this fly. Here's three shots of this thing on the same leaf.
Lastly are these three shots of the flowers from a weed that has been abundantly growing in the meadows. There's plenty of them there and they get easily propagated from one spot to another because of the strong winds that happens in the afternoon. This is also the same plant that the white moth above on the first three shots has standing on except these are fresh flowers but will eventually end up withered just like above in a short period of time like days only.
Follow me on my nature travels.
