These photographs were taken in Queensland, Australia, by an amateur photographer named Laurence Sanders.

The leafcutter bee (Megachile macularis) can be seen fetching freshly-cut leaves, which she uses to line the inner walls of her nest. The wolfspider moves aside, allowing the bee to enter the nest, and then simply watches as the leaf is positioned along the inner wall.

After inspecting the nest together, they return to their resting positions -- sitting side-by-side in the entryway to the nest.

The bee seems completely at ease in the presence of the wolfspider, which is normally a voracious predator, and the spider seems equally unfazed by the fact that it shares its burrow with an enormous bee.

This arrangement is completely unheard of, and the images are a fascinating sight to behold.

I love people sometimes

oh yes, my favorite OCs, absolutely NOT the all-powerful Mary Sue gods

I don’t know, I didn’t have a Mary Sue phase as a kid, apparently now I’m taking it out on myself. But as long as these characters are dumb and full of flaws with which they can be given interesting conflicts, I think everything is fine🥰

BEHOLD!
