Lets talk - (anything)

Final results: no Hawlucha. We were not allowed to leave the plane this time despite having a two hour gap between the flights. Big sadge, but it is what it is. Not that I would’ve gotten one anyway… Still pissed they released it right after my trip to Mexico last time and chances of me getting there any time soon are very slim so whatever Tour will probably be my best bet if I still care about the game at that point.

Still hoping for an event featuring global trading, or (more realistically, perhaps) another day or weekend with regionals spawning in each other’s regions.

I have even better record than him, but its on opposite side of spectrum…

In single day, I caught Zero Pokemon, and transferred 50 from my storage, because my storage was full !!

Thank you @NotanotherKangaskhan for sending me a postcard from The Serbian Orthodox Church of Saint Elijah the Prophet in Coober Pedy! :pray: And it happened on the very same day we celebrate Saint Elijah here in Serbia! :orthodox_cross:




For those who don’t know about this church here is an excerpt from Wikipedia:

The Church of Saint Elijah the Prophet (Serbian: Црква Светог Илије Пророка / Crkva Svetog Ilije Proroka) is the Serbian Orthodox church in Coober Pedy, South Australia, built in 1993 and is dedicated to Saint Elijah. It belongs to the Serbian Orthodox Eparchy of Australia and New Zealand. The church is a popular tourist attraction because of its underground location. The whole church complex, with a church, a community hall, a parish house and a religious school, is carved in the sandstone between 3 and 17 metres under the ground level.

I’m not religious but could really appreciate how impressive the Church is. It’s open 24hrs a day to. Turn the lights on when you enter and turn them off when you leave.

I took some pics of the spectacular Stain Glass Windows. Unfortunately file size is too big to post it here :disappointed:

It somehow happened again. I did try to catch a Pokemon now and it worked… until I got stuck here:


Yes, this was my full screen…

Next time I should try to find an XXL with this on.

These ‘Galarian’ Zigzagoon have all the signs of becoming an invasive species in my neighbourhood.

They are out-competing the native brown species, which is at serious risk of becoming extinct. Boo :disappointed:

I’m gonna start shooting the bastards! - we don’t want another grey squirrel / brown anole / american crayfish / zebra mussel / cane toad / etc / etc situation happening here!

About half an hour ago, a black Wasp used his Poison Sting on me. That sting was not much painful in beginning, but within 10-15 minutes, my finger got numb and swollen. It was(is) so much swollen that I am not able to fold my fingers…

About 10 minutes ago, while I was pouring water in my glass, suddenly I got dizzy and something like blackout was about to appear, but then I sat down on floor and reduced my moment of inertia by bringing my arms and legs close.

I would have applied some home remedies, but everyone here around were sleeping, as it was 6:00 AM here.

Let’s see how it turns out by the end of the day !!

Ouch! My sympathies.

I reckon you’ll be alright in a couple of years - cough - I mean hours cough

Personally, I’m a big fan of wasps - here’s one of my favourite species - the Cow Killer from a snap I took in Florida…

Actually, falling unconscious for couple of minutes helped. All of sudden, swelling disappeared with only pain and spot being the remaining points !!

:smiley:

I don’t like wasps that much, rather I like ants and spiders.


This Wasp is common in my village ( Asian Hornet Wasp ):

It’s so big that I don’t dare to go close to it !!



I want to show you a picture of Spider which I took 3-4 days ago :




And the one which I found in lawn around our residence :


Zoom the image to get the close details !!

Great shots @DeltaEmerald :grinning::+1:

Often with spiders it’s the small ones you have to be most wary of…
…but here’s a picture of a big one I found snacking on a lizard that wandered into its web… gulp

I’ve just realised how brave it was for @Jormdeworm to go looking for a Hawlucha in Mexico :mexico:!

I think we all know where most of the worms in Mexico end up…


Glad to hear you made it back safely… Proost!

At least that’s with worms only.

But in China situation is even worse. They eat every possible animals which they think are edible.
:nauseated_face: :face_vomiting:

It definitely feels better in our country where animals are considered to be related with god and are treated with respect, hence people usually don’t kill them, unless those people are poachers !!

It looks majestic and beautiful, and your photography skills enhances it even more :star_struck: :love_you_gesture:.

Usually the big spiders which we can see here ( Tarantula ) are dull looking and are hunters, which run on the ground quickly, and finding them on the ground which looks similar to their body texture is extremely difficult.


Since we are talking about preys and predators, so see the image below :


See this insect which is sitting comfortably on my wrist. In first look, it might seem dangerous and related to wasps.

But in fact, it is related to Housefly only :rofl: :rofl: !! That’s the disguise method with which that species is blessed with, in order to avoid their predators.

:rofl: that’s interesting. Not to mention I escaped from that place twice… Looks like I enjoy searching up the danger, apparently…

Yeah @DeltaEmerald , the fly in the foto is known here as well… what a disguise, first your affraid and after you see that’s no reason to worry.
And about the worm, yes, @Jormdeworm is very lucky, not only in Mexico… :joy: :joy: Here we expulse any worm at the first sign that he has entered at home.

Something else… today I got as a reward for spinning a stop a sign with bronze-color and drawn as a Pokestop.
Anybody knows what it is?

It’s one of the recently added GO Fest Stickers.
