The zebras and the lioness…

On Twitter, a couple of Twitter friends, Kitusai & Bohdan  — who happen to be excellent, creative musicians, by the way, (and who go by the Twitter icon-image of two Zebras) — suggested to me that it is good to give others a second chance when they do wrong.  However, maybe not always; as I told them:  two zebras who give the lioness a second-chance aren’t zebras for very long!

[If insects were mammals, this Robber Fly would be the lion of our rural area.  In our area, I will often see a Robber Fly diligently flying from leaf to leaf, looking for prey to attack.  They are very voracious and persistent predators.  They will even attack much larger insects than themselves.  This one has caught a Blue Damselfly.  Blue Damselflies are, themselves, predators of other insects.]
