bite me…

Yes, summer in Australia means sun, sand, surf, scorching days, and balmy nights - but with those comes an annual invasion by insects. Among the most welcome are dragonfiles and butterflies, but among the least welcome are the dreaded mosquito. The suspected culprit here is most likely Culex Molestus, common name Mole, or possibly it’s night time biting cousin Culex Quinqefasciatus. The irony that they are a prime source of food for the Dragonfly, is not lost on me…
Ouchies.. someone has sweet blood! They always get me too and they itch like mad.
Hey, where’s your suntan, Gboy, hmm??
hey Boy hows ya?

I hate insects.
Keshi.
Cléa : Now what ever gave you the idea I had a suntan? Perhaps I never explained that I am a member of that bizarre unter-culture, Gothic Surfers, who choose only surf at night, so crowds are not a problem.
Keshi: I don’t hate ALL insects… just the ones that SUCK!!! Pray Mantis’ and Dragonflies are kinda kewl I reckon.
Owwwwwww — yikes, that looks so itchy-scratchy!
I’m skeered of skeeters … they carry funky viruses and stuff. Be careful, Mr. Surfer!
(don’t they make a water-resistant bug repellent?)
clearly vampire bites
LB: mmm… don’t I know it. Luckily the REAL nasty ones aren’t this far south… yet. I’ll be careful though ;).
Gabrielle: Vampire mozzies? But no marks on my neck???
