Description
Hello Hello,
How is everyone keeping? Ready for the new year? O_o Sorry I've been so quiet recently... We've got family over from the UK so cant spend much time here cause I do have to be kinda social ;)
I got back to Waiere falls the other day but did something different... Instead of walking along the track I climed up the very rocky river bed to the very base of the falls...
What you see in the pic is what I found on one of the rocks at the base of the falls... I've tried to look him up on the net but didn't find much... though I've come to believe it's a green scarab. The first time I've ever seen one or even heard of it. Spray from the waterfall created those water dropplets on him.... For a change I didn't put them there LOL. Hope everyone is keeping well and has a happy new year! :)

Had to stare at it a moment to make sure what I was seeing was real. This is amazing. I love you and want to have your children. Sorry, that's all I have to say. I used up all my other glowing remarks for this year and have to wait a few days for the new shipment.
