Talk about getting yourself in a bind!! Orthoporoides
Although it is getting colder here, I have seen many birds and insects still mating. These two millipedes were rolling all over the show and I gathered by that the female was not too keen on accepting his advances.
Ah the good old Chungalolo (spelling!). I had forgotten all about them yet another memory you have brought back. I am not sure what happened to your comment on my site, I saw that you said you did not know what to say and I said print comments. One comment printed but yours went AWOL!! I agree there was not really much to say and even less if you do not like oysters! Diane
Shongololo love! Ahh, that's nice... Looks like they are going for the best of three falls, and that does look like a full nelson, with a khamora twist.
I like very much this pictures and the situation. I don't understand why,but yesterday I commented this post,but the comment was lost :( Anyway,it's never too late...
These pictures are wonderful Joan, I am so glad you gave me the link. Have you seen http://www.ustream.tv/theowlbox It is an amazing story and I have been watching this since the first owl hatched.Diane
Geesh...how pushy can you be? Today I went out to put up the hummingbird feeder and a red spider dropped on my head. I let it down and it scurried off...hey, I didn't scream. I wish I could have gotten a photo.. Michelle
Same here Leeloo with it being the end of our financial year. I am only now begining to see the light at the end of the tunnel so perhaps I can get back to normal too. Thank goodness it is over for another year!! :)
LOL!! It does Jose. I wonder where they learnt it from. Those anacondas are amazing to see when they get together with the females. It is hard to tell where one starts and another ends.:)

ReplyDeleteSo pleased that the owls returned to the wild safely after the poisoning. It must have been fun to have them around for a while though.
ReplyDeleteJoan: Now that is a full nelson on the lady. Great capture of nature.
ReplyDeleteShongololo love! Ahh, that's nice... Looks like they are going for the best of three falls, and that does look like a full nelson, with a khamora twist.
ReplyDeleteLooks like an interesting dance to me. I don't remember seeing that. But the Giant sized Shongololos were awesome.
ReplyDeleteI love your perspective on things in the wild! Your photos are so interesting. I'll come back again.-Kay
ReplyDeleteI thought this is the whip I used for my Good Friday lesson.

ReplyDeleteLOL!! Now I wonder where you got the name and correct spelling from Mike? :) Now you know where our wrestlers learnt these moves from. :)
ReplyDeleteThese are not from the trip Gaelyn but taken in my garden a day or two before you arrived. :) I wonder if it can be called a dance of love? LOL!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting and commenting Kay. The insect world is a fascinating one with its diversity.

ReplyDeleteThe poor male is holding on for dear life. Can I have a piece of cake now?
ReplyDeleteI saved a piece just for you Jonker. :)I have to warn you though I am almost to the point of having it for breakfast so you had better hurry. LOL!!
ReplyDeleteWow, millipede romance!
ReplyDeleteHa, when I looked at your first pic, I thought a single millipede had somehow managed to accidentally form a knot.
LOL!! I wonder how they work out where to put all those legs and feet. :)
ReplyDeleteGood to hear from you again Jochen. Love the article and now at least you are not in trouble anymore. :)

I think this was more Kama Sutra Craver but they sure had more positions than have ever been thought of!! LOL!!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to hear from you again Leeloo. Where have you been? :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Andrea. A lot of people have had comments disappear and all kinds of things going wrong with Blogger this last week or so.
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome Diane. No, I have not been watching it but will go and take a peek. Some of these are wonderful to watch.
ReplyDeleteCool shots! How interesting! They are really wound up in each other!
ReplyDeleteLOL!! I have heard of love knots but this is ridiculous!! Thanks Mary. :)
