Jungle Daily - A celebration of winged flying delights!

in #macrophotography6 years ago (edited)

Today I have a collection of some of my favourite winged, flying beasts from here in the jungle. The art of flight is a magical gift to be blessed with and these beautiful creatures exemplify that in fine style.

It is hard to know where to stop uploading, I have so many favourite creatures but I have some gardening to do, so here I shall end for today.
Have a beautiful Sunday

Our lives become beautiful not because we are perfect but because we put our heart into what we do.

You amaze me every day! I love to get to know the jungle through your eyes! Thank you my dear friend! ❤😊❤

Oh Martina, you are the biggest sweetheart. Happy Sunday (although its almost over for you, its only Sunday 2pm here in the jungle!)

Actually, I'm getting ready to go to bed 😊 still tired from driving and last night out 😊 Have a lovely Sunday my dear! ❤

Sweet dreams sweet lady, I love how you are addicted to steemit too, like all of us xx

Great selection of photos @sallybeth23 - I especially like the turquoise cicada!!

Thanks @gardeningchef. He is the prettiest cicada I have seen, most are quite unattractive to put it politely 🤗🦋🌈🌴❤️

Great shots Sally! Is the blue dacnis standing on a flowering bird of paradise plant native to your jungle?

It is widespread in the South American region, and also found in Nicaragua, Trinidad, and Panama. It’s really beautiful isn’t it!

Thats just lovely lady. You are growing so much. Blessings from a minion :)

Thanks my favourite minion 💛
