I braved the hoards of hungry mosquitoes in infamous Mossie Alley again to find my pair of sunglasses. I dropped it in the morning and had to retrace my steps to retrieve my sunglasses. The first trip took me only to 3 meters in and I found a pretty Branded Imperial.
It was also where I dropped my sunglasses as I swatted and smacked mosquitoes. Argh!!!! I hightailed out of the place with the mosquitoes hot on my heels.
Next I tried the other entrance with similar results but I did manage to photograph these insects. I finally found a green Cicada.
The second trip to find the missing sunglasses yielded, my sunglasses, a pretty Cycad Blue, 
and a dragonfly before I fled again. No amount of insect repellent will keep the mossies away as they are attracted by sweat.

Wow, wow, wow....I love these pics. The colors of the cicada pic is simply stunning. Any frontal pic for that?
Thanks! unfortunately no frontal shot. I would have to climb up the tree and hang upside down like spiderman to get that shot.
hahaha! that would make a picture more spectacular than any you've taken! anyway, great pics! the cicada is now my wall paper..
i have a funny bone too. are you going to be paying me royalty for use of my pic as your wall paper? where should i send the bill?
hahaha... i shall only pay royalty when i get that frontal shot...
you've had a great couple months with spotting rare and beautiful creatures. i'm already envious enough so dont make me broke too...
Well envious, I may just get the frontal shot you know. Then where should I send the bill to?
If you're someone I know I may offer a small discount, ;-)
The second butterfly should be Cycad Blue. :)
Thanks! I do get my butterflies mixed up.
