Spotting

Notes:

Mmmmmm I smell human... Now if only I could stretch another metre longer! One of the infinite number of suckers in our rainforest backyard, who amaze with their patient waiting for someone to disturb their bush home, this time to retrieve a mis-thrown ball from deep in the bamboo grove.

Strangely enough, the mozzies are not so bad... At least not till summer.
