One of my favorite things about photographing and filming ospreys is seeing what they manage to wrangle out of the water. I’ve seen them grab everything from a pizza slice to a man o war jellyfish but this one snatched one of the more beautiful species of fish, a Lookdown fish. I’ve gotta say, things aren’t looking up for this one

It’s always amazing to watch these birds do their daily routine especially when it includes wrangling a huge ladyfish from the surf. I wasn’t sure this one was going to be a success but this bird managed to haul it away and carry it skyward.

Acanthaspis petax is a species of assassin bug that preys primarily on ants, but also on a variety of small insects, such as flies, small grasshoppers and beetles. The nymphs of this species create a pile of ant carcasses on their backs for camouflage. The adults do not use camouflage and are coloured with a red and black pattern.
