Little fella found a hole in a park bench to keep cozy from the wind and rain.

Beautiful weevil I found in Lamington National Park (Queensland, Australia). closest ID I have found is a “little rainforest weevil” but not sure at all, so if anyone recognises, keen to know it’s species. Weevils are genuinely one of the most adorable insects. Absolutely love them.

P.S. if you in Aus, Lamington National Park is well worth a visit. Stunning place.

Stumbled upon a menagerie of Golden Orb Weavers in Fraser Coast. I have seen small groupings before and have heard they like to cluster, but nothing like this. I like my spiders but even for me it was confronting. Easily 100 in a giant web that had taken over a hedge and tree. Will see if I can upload the video I took. They had woven a thick quilt of silk across the area.

Have added the video (successfully I hope) which shows the extent. Incredible but also unsettling.
