I was travelling on train in New South Wales, the old lady was sitting far from me with her grandchildren. Her hands made me to think about myself in few years time. I want to know about these wrinkles. Are they the result of years full of pain? happiness? sadness? ...

Red Bull Ant

2007-04-09T22:39:00.001+10:00

25 mm

Red Bull Ant is also known as Giant Bull Ant. They are one of the largest in ants species. They have long, straight and powerful jaws and a potent sting. They have good vision and responded to our approaching even when we were meters away. Red Bull Ants have a reddish-brown head and thorax but the back half of the abdomen is black. Their log jaws are brownish-yellow.

Red Bull Ants build their nest underground and have quite extensive tunnel systems. The nest entry is usually covered by dry plant materials and dirt. The dirt is loosely scattered around the nest mound. Two or three bull ant guards can often be seen in the immediate opening area, keeping a sharp eye out for any possible intruders.

Be careful if you want to visit Australia

In Australia you don't need to be killed by Shark or Corocodile, one tiny spider can kill you as well ;)

I was bitten by "White Teil Spider" last year. It wasn't fun at all. I was lucky since this one is not very dangerous but my body didn't liked it and showed a lot of reaction. Believe me it was "bloody painful".

Hope every one else is healthy and safe

So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
Ans so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let's stop all the fight
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
And what have we done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
Ans so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
War is over over
If you want it

Where Do the Children Play? :: Cat Stevens :: Chronicles :: 2006
Well I think it's fine, building jumbo planes.
Or taking a ride on a cosmic train.
Switch on summer from a slot machine.
Get what you want to if you want, 'cause you can get anything.

I know we've come a long way,
We're changing day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?

Well you roll on roads over fresh green grass.
For your lorryloads pumping petrol gas.
And you make them long, and you make them tough.
But they just go on and on, and it seems you can't get off.

Oh, I know we've come a long way,
We're changing day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?

When you crack the sky, scrapers fill the air.
Will you keep on building higher
'til there's no more room up there?
Will you make us laugh, will you make us cry?
Will you tell us when to live, will you tell us when to die?

I know we've come a long way,
We're changing day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?
