Today I learned that Kihikihi means cicada in Māori, and here is the cutest little statue. 😍

Taken on the way through Kihikihi today.

Blue-black insect thing.#nature #insectsarecool. Seems it's a sawfly, so I'd guess that it's a Solomon Seal sawfly, as its offspring eat my Solomon's seal every year.

This evening I meet these guys, and they were so cute that I just sat and watched them as the last of the light left the world.

Their wings were seldom still. They hovered as they fed. So cute. πŸ₯°

Weeeeell, you can’t get a butterfly to come much closer that that!!! Watching the Yellow Admirals play and trying to get close enough to take a picture.

And when wildlife decides that you are a chair, you just stay still. Even if your foot is going to sleep 😍πŸ₯°πŸ˜

I don’t make the rules πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
