A nice visit to Moore Park today! I saw so many organisms, but the highlight was definitely a hapless little zebra jumper being Denied predation of a ticklebug.

I saw the jumper approach the ticklebugs (who I'd just observed mating), and went "oh, whoa, am I going to see a predation event?" and turned the video camera on. I instead captured yet another reason why it's hard to be a predator in this world!
