Dung-beetle

Intense study of the dung-beetles!

These amazing flying creatures roll bits of dung to wherever to feed their little ones when they hatch. But they fight over the balls of dung and it's quite elaborate to watch! (as you can tell from the first picture!).

The one on the left had just been thrown off the dung-ball!

And it's offski as quick as possible back to the ranch!
