Australian Wildlife After Dark

Something a little different! This is a bolas spider (Ordgarius magnificus) in action. The spider attracts moths using a pheromone that the moths respond to when mating. You can see a moth that has just been lured in and in the right of the picture you can see the sticky 'bolas' that the spider is waving around (attached to that extended front leg). It won't be long now! Above the spider to the right you can see the previous victim, now wrapped and put aside for later. #auswildlife #spiders #arachnids #wildlifephotography #wildlife #inverts #macrophotography #australia #australian_wildlife

Brush-tailed Bettong or Woylie, Bettongia penicillata. Another very endangered Australian. This one in the Dryandra Forest in WA. #auswildlife #endangeredspecies #bettong #australianwildlife #australia #mammalsofaustralia #mammals #wildlifephotography #wildlifeonearth #animals #marsupial

Christmas Island Flying Fox - Pteropus natalis. While most bats tend to be active at night, this flying fox is possibly the only species within our Australian territories that is commonly seen out and about during the day. This one was soaring along the edge of a cliff with frigate birds. #auswildlife #christmasisland #pteropus #flyingfox #australianwildlife #wildlifephotography #chiroptera #bats #batsofaustralia #mammals #flying

Not sure if you can see this on a small screen but this bird is being hyper aggressive. His eye has a black pupil and red iris that is more intense towards the middle. In his display to the other bird you will see that he contracts his pupils and the eyes flash brilliant red. He does it twice in this video. I don’t even know if this has ever been documented. #rainbowlorikeet #auswildlife #birdsofinstagram #birds_adored #australianwildlife #wildlifevideos #australianbirds #parrots #birdsdisplay

At last, a #frogfriday. This is Litoria moorei from SW Western Australia. Common name - Motorbike Frog, presumably because of its call, so maybe not that different the green and golden bell frog in the eastern states.

Just back from WA chasing bats! This is their largest long-eared bat, Nyctophilus major. I had quite a few bats on my wanted list and managed to get them all. #auswildlife #australianwildlife #chiroptera #batsofaustralia #wildlifephotography #wildlife #microchiroptera #visitwesternaustralia #ears #longearedbat

Time for another bat! This is Micronomus norfolkensis from eastern Australia. The only species included in this genus ...Micro - small and nomus which is...no idea. So it's got a small nomus. I am ok with that. :-) #auswildlife #australia #australianwildlife #molossidae #freetailbat #chiroptera #bats #wildlifeonearth #wildlifephotographer #cuteanimals #naturephotography #naturelovers

Another common denizen of the garden that I see every night - the common brushtail possum. #auswildlife #possums #animalshots #australiananimals #natureofaustralia #brushtailpossum

I thought that since I have started posting wildlife from the garden, I might as well do a thorough job of it and show more of the mammals. This is a common or eastern ringtail possum. In our area, we have a particularly rich, red colour form which is often referred to as a separate sub-species. They are quite cute and they can sometimes be seen in the day going about their business. Maybe it's because there are no predators around. In fact night is more dangerous time as they often fall victim to the local powerful owls. #auswildlife #wildlife #australianwildlife #possums #wildlifephotography #marsupials #nature #naturephotography #animals #nativeanimals

After much deliberation I decided to buy a new lens and tonight was its first walk in the garden to test it out on any hapless furry creature that I could find. This was it! A sugar glider quietly sitting, regards me with curiosity as I manoeuvre flashes, red torch and camera between the leaves. I think the lens is ok! #auswildlife #wildlife #australianwildlife #sugarglider #marsupials #gardenwildlife #nature #gliders #animallovers #naturephotography #animalsofinstagram #cuteanimals
