Another hummer wannabe

#nature #insects #bloomscrolling #photography

Hello everyone! I’m Sanyu from Uganda. My name means happiness or joy, and it really reflects who I am because I’m almost always smiling or finding something to laugh about.

This is my #introduction post. I’m a #filmmaker and an animation student though my mother once believed I’d become a lawyer. Instead, I followed my love for stories, and here I am.

I love sleeping, good food, reading, writing, poetry, rain, billiards, music, movies and anime. I'm also known as the Korean girl because of how much I love Korean language and culture.

If you enjoy films, books, poetry, anime, or just want to chat, feel free to say hi. I’d love to connect with more people who love what they do and live it with joy.😊

Now *that's* what I call a defensive posture 🙀

Or should that be posterior? 🤪

The spiky arse on this little fly is remarkable – it's a Tachina ferox, also known as Nowickia ferox.

In German, it's a Schwarzfühler Borstenfliege or roughly "black antenna bristle fly".

It was flying around too quickly to get a definitive single shot, but between the four photos, you'll get the idea 🤷‍♂️

10 hours left.

Today we highlight Akram—in my opinion, the best big brother in the world. You help him keep his 5 baby siblings and their mama alive. He keeps going, so we have to keep going.

Today is #InternationalNonBinaryDay

So here's a little cartoon for all of you my fellow #nonbinary tomatoes who don't identify as fruit or vegetable.😉

A friendly neighbor

I think this is Melissodes bimaculatus, a local solitary bee, and a male given the very long antennae. All around a very good bee!

Roamer, the Lady Joan Mastodon said to me. My trusted friend and adviser. I know you must leave. You go with my blessing. Roam. Plant the hashtags, our cause depends on them. When you encounter scrapers, slay them. When you encounter the Great Algo, stay out of his way. Listen to the toots around you and make your own toots resonate with them. Boost the beautiful and unique. Forgive our fellow tooters who visit DarkSky: they know not what they do. Our cause is good: free, self-determined expression. We will prevail. The Great Algo is strong now but he will vanish. Fare thee well, Roamer, she said. Roam.
