Bugs love the rain, even if I don't!

In an earlier post, I had guessed that the rainy season in Kuantan had come to an end, but as you can see from the raindrops in this photograph, I spoke too soon!

You will also notice this intriguing bug that came to settle on our orchids yesterday afternoon.



It's cool and wet here in Kuantan, pretty miserable weather. Makes it especially nice when I come across a photo like this!

    All the rain will certainly keep the plants happy, as well as the bugs!

    Nice idea - the contrast in colours comparison. I think I prefere the black and white...

    I'm jealous you have your own orchids, how lovely, will we be seeing more of them Duncan? Your shot of the bug is very good too. :-)
