Madagascar day gecko (Phelsuma madagascariensis) Yesterday I adopted three geckos.😄 A Madagascar day gecko and two leopard geckos. The day gecko secretly watches me from a safe hiding place while I sit and work at my desk.😇 You don't get to see the other two and I don't want to disturb them.🤫 Unfortunately, the previous owner kept both species together in one terrarium. But now I'm taking care of a species-approbiate home.🤗 --------------------------------- ↪ FOLLOW ↩ 🙎 #megagroundsloth 🦎 #megapetsloth --------------------------------- #phelsuma #daygecko #taggecko #gecko #geico #madagascar #phelsumamadagascariensis #lizards #daygeckos #terrario #cuteface #reptil #animalslover #madagaskar #herpetology #animale #echse #tiereaufinstagram #naturedaily #littlefriend #bestanimalpics #animalface #geckogram #geckolife #zoovisit #madagascardaygecko #green #greenlizard (hier: Oberursel) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck9cB-moCtv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

❄️🕸️❄️🕸️❄️ This morning the whole balcony was hung with white spider webs. It was very foggy at minus 5 degrees. A beautiful, enchanting sight that did not last long. The webs collapsed after a short time. These were the works of garden spiders (Araneus diadematus).🥰 I couldn't stand it for long either and I'm back in quickly! 😄☕ --------------------------------- ↪ FOLLOW ↩ ⛄ #megagroundsloth 🕷️ #megapetsloth --------------------------------- #wintermorning #kreuzspinnen #aranas #araneus #spider #naturaleza #fotografia #spiderweb #arachnology #invertebrates #spinnen #arachnid #frostymorning #arachnida #animalia #zoology #tierwelt #welovenature #animal #animals #makro #naturephotography #winterzeit #naturfotografie #naturephoto #mistymorning #naturemagic (hier: Oberursel) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmSTblctkfe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🐝🌸🌦️ It's raining and the teasel flowers are filled with delicious potion. Bumblebees use their magic sparingly and do not fly when it's raining. Happy are those who find refuge on this wild teasel (Dipsacus fullonum). Here you can linger until the sun shines again. Perfect stay for this buff-tailed bumblebee (Bombus terrestris). --------------------------------- ↪ FOLLOW ↩ 🦥 #megagroundsloth 🐝 #megapetsloth --------------------------------- #bumblebees #hummel #insects #beesofinstagram #wildbienen #bombus #insectlovers #entomology #invertebrates #teasel #blume #zoology #nature #animallovers #abejorro #macrophotography #makrofotografie #🌺 #bumblebee #animales #🐝 #hummeln #bienen #naturaleza #naturfotografie #naturaleza🍃 #insecto #insectos (hier: Gewerbegebiet An den Drei Hasen) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfuTg4hNrW3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Madagascar hissing cockroach (Gromphadorhina portentosa) I used to keep this species as a pet for many years. They reach a size of about 5 to 8 cm and live up to 5 years. They don't have wings, but they can easily scale smooth glass. The offspring looks cute. They are so-called nymphs, so they already look very similar to the adults. Only in tiny. The tiny ones were always great escape artists. Again and again I collected the little adventurers and freed them from fluff. The adults live in groups and communicate by hissing noises. There are three different hissing sounds. Both sexes can do the disturbance hiss "F*ck off!". Only males can make two more sounds: the female-attracting hiss and the aggressive fighting hiss. The males can be recognized by their horns and bushy antennae. There is one in the middle of the second picture. The females have humps instead of horns. Females carry their eggs (ootheca) internally, and release the young nymphs only after her offspring have emerged within her. After that, they usually stay close together for some time. --------------------------------- ⠀ ↪ FOLLOW ↩ 🙎 #megagroundsloth 🐇 #megapetsloth --------------------------------- #gromphadorhina #hissingcockroach #madagascarhissingcockroach #insectos #madagaskar #naturaleza #insecta #tiere #cockroach #schaben #species #entomology #insekt #zoology #roaches #hisser #zoologia #terrariumlove #macrophoto #insetti #dieren #animalia #beautifulcreatures #biologie #entomologia #bicho #dierenfotografie #sixlegs (hier: Oberursel) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcVZ1sotzOB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Warning! Not suitable for imitation! Even slightly poisonous animals can be fatal, and any animal can behave unexpectedly at any time. I've had a persistent fascination for getting bees, wasps, and spiders on my fingers since early childhood. I've always wondered why everyone panics when an animal like that is around. Panic isn't necessary. Only respect and prudence. I've never been stung or bitten, apart from a few accidents, when I stepped on or reached into it unnoticed. Still, I wouldn't dare to pick up my Chilean rose tarantula (Grammostola rosea). I don't think that's even possible without stressing both of us. With my deeply relaxed Vietnam forest scorpion (Heterometrus laoticus), I had the impression that it was easily possible and I couldn't resist giving it a one-time try. The species is known for its peacefulness. He crawled onto the hand by himself and behaved relatively calmly. Scorpions always observe their surroundings very closely with all their senses and sometimes react to it in a startled way. He moves backwards away from the potential danger and can easily fall off the hand. Scorpion stings are described as extremely painful. It's considered to be one of the most painful poisons in the world. The reason for this are special acids it contains. A good first remedy for the pain is said to be strong chewing tobacco that is applied to the area. According to scorpion researcher Martin Handjaba, who handles many different species, he and his colleagues have been stung many times. With the first sting, usually no poison is injected. Young scorpions like to shoot a full load straight away and every animal is different! You shouldn't try to figure out. They feel most comfortable in a natural or nature-like environment anyway. --------------------------------- ⠀ ↪ FOLLOW ↩ 🙎 #megagroundsloth 🦂 #megapetsloth --------------------------------- #scorpion #blackbeauty #skorpion #heterometrus #scorpio #naturaleza #forestscorpion #tiere #pets #poison #terraria #scorpions #arachnids #arachnida #petscorner #thrill #arachnid #toxicfriends #giftig #stinger #terrario #love #zoo #laos #vietnam #azie #azia #toxic (at Oberursel) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYhPW5vNXei/?utm_medium=tumblr

This little beauty is a mirid bug (Deraeocoris ruber)🤠🐞 They inhabit forests, but occur mainly on sunny forest edges and open areas.🌳🌞 Mirid bugs prey on various small arthropods such as caterpillars, but particularly aphids.🌿🐛 The prey is killed and sucked out by a sting that is also painful for humans.🧃😋 But that rarely happens.😄 The species is useful and harmless.🤗 However, nature is full of phenomena. In Germany, 2016, a related species (Psallus varians) - within the same family (Miridae) - spontaneously developed an increased appetite for blood and attacked humans and animals in very large numbers.😵🩸🌳 The mirid bug is widespread in almost all of Europe (except the far north and few islands in the Mediterranean and Atlantic) - you find it in North Africa - and further east to the Caucasus. It has been introduced in some areas of North and South America.🌍🌎 ----------------------------- ↪ FOLLOW ↩ 🦥 #megagroundsloth 🐞 #megapetsloth ----------------------------- #wanze #bicho #insects #bugs #miridae #wanzen #insectlovers #entomology #invertebrates #umwelt #natur #zoology #nature #animallovers #naturephotography #magicalnature #makro #🐞 #wants #animales #insectworld #insektenfotografie #insekten #naturaleza #natureaddict #naturaleza🍃 #insecto #sixlegs (hier: Oberursel) https://www.instagram.com/p/CntIlC7oUGS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I like experimenting with Dall-E, an artificial intelligence that generates images based on input.👨‍💻 Actually, I wanted a completely different motif, namely that of a Pachnoda marginata (sun beetle). At least it created Scarab Beetles, so it didn't go completely off plan.😄 An AI has no intentions of its own, it only implements commands according to learned patterns. Without consciousness, without longing, an AI can never create art. But I do not deny that you can create art using AI. However, I only imagine beautiful images and ask my virtual friend to create them. And I get beautiful and inspiring pictures, don't you think?😊 ----------------------------- ↪ FOLLOW ↩ 🦥 #megagroundsloth 🐞 #megapetsloth 🌺 #megaartsloth ----------------------------- #dalle #roses #flower #blume #floral #bloem #🌺 #scarabbeetle #blumenliebe #insects #flowerpower #beautifulflowers #blüte #blossoms #aiart #blumen #flowering #openai #beetle #flowerjoy #colorfulnature #pétalos #naturaleza #aiartcommunity #naturaleza🍃 #petalos #pflanzenliebe (hier: Oberursel) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnSKu9AN2cj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Shining Serpent. Many people are fascinated, but also fearful. Snakes have always played a special role for humans. The fear of snakes is innate, babies as young as six months react with stress to snake motifs. It is assumed that this has evolutionary reasons. It makes sense to spot a snake early, as some species are dangerous. Nevertheless, in ancient cultures primarily positive meanings have developed. The snake embodies knowledge and wisdom not only in ancient Greece, Rome or India, but also in Inca mythology and many more. The role as protector and as a connection between the worlds is also found again and again. It is a highly symbolic animal, godlike or with divine attributes. I can well imagine that this inborn fear has contributed significantly to the myth-making. You see this wondrous animal and you automatically feel something. "Where does this feeling come from?" In the past there was no concept of evolution and no scientific connection to instincts as it is possible to understand today. Of course, coupled with the obvious characteristics (kills rodents, legless, skins in one piece) this certainly captures the imagination. We deal with our environment, how we perceive and evaluate it. We recognize patterns and make assumptions. Inevitably we intervene and have to be aware of the consequences in order not to end up harming ourselves. Snakes are important, so are our instincts. But whoever kills a snake takes on a force stronger than oneself. Be it nature, be it God. Only a part of all snake species can be dangerous to humans, but almost any rodent can make you seriously ill. We are somewhere between monkeys playing with sticks and trees growing on our ruins. Snakes have been around for at least 167 million years. Humility. --------------------------- ↪ FOLLOW ↩ 🙎 #megagroundsloth 🐍 #megapetsloth --------------------------- #cornsnake #snakes #kornnatter #snakesofinstagram #mythology #snakelove #snake #reptilelove #reptilelover #slang #reptiles #reptilien #snakesofig #herpetology #mysnake #tier #pantherophisguttatus #serpientes #terrariumlove #schlangen #haustiere #schlange #animals #snake🐍 #terrarium #reptilephotography #tierfotografie #scales (hier: Oberursel) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm-uRjltU-O/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

While Chico the day gecko has already enjoyed much of your attention, this nameless young leopard gecko lady has kept very hidden until now. Along with Chico, she is one of the three geckos I adopted two months ago. Unfortunately, the previous owner was not in the mental state to offer them species-appropriate accommodation. He kept two leopard geckos in a terrarium together with a day gecko. Actually, his supervisors should have taken care of it, whether that's okay. The surprise was big, because my friend and I didn't know anything about the leopard geckos. But the good thing is that I have 22 years of experience keeping this species. At first there was a huge shock because it seemed like only one leopard gecko was alive. Both were in a large sea shell, looking out. But this girl looked like she'd been dead for weeks. To play dead believably, she shut her eyes tight, opened her mouth a little, and contracted her body. When I got the male out of the sea shell, she authentically fell inside and disappeared. When I first heard a noise, I thought I had just imagined it. Dead geckos don't make sounds! What a feeling when she suddenly looked alive and beautiful out of the sea shell! Like all my animals, she is a very beautiful sight. Nothing is known about her age and origin, but she looks to me like a young animal of about one or two years. As soon as I have a few nice photos of the male, I will of course also show him to you. 🥰 --------------------------- ↪ FOLLOW ↩ 🙎 #megagroundsloth 🦎 #megapetsloth --------------------------- #talesfromthecrypt #geckosmile #petphotography #babyanimal #leopardgecko #leopardgeckos #geckoleopard #lizards #lizardsofinstagram #geckolove #süß #reptile #playingdead #hessen #reptilekeeper #homejungle #haustieremachenglücklich #tierlieb #eublepharis #taunus #petlizard #haustier #cutepet #tierbabys #petcare #terrarium #meinhaustier #scalesandtails (hier: Oberursel) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm3ozUkNuPb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
