Usually winter is when I like to hibernate. There's not much to photograph in regards to insects or reptiles, and the water is too cold to go scuba diving (even though visibility is usually better in the colder months). But if you dig far enough, there's always something to photograph. There are a few jumpers around, and they're probably the most fun of the macroarachnids to shoot!
And usually you'll always find bees, and other spiders.
But it's always gold when I manage to find frogs in winter. There's an individual plant in the Roma St Parklands that is absolutely caked in Litoria fallax. There were guys in the gardens today doing work, and one of them bumped the plant and scattered a heap of the treefrogs. I found one clinging to a flower petal, and ended up coaxing him into a more comfortable position on the flower for some shots.
