小草原 (Grassland)

家对面的小草原是个奇异的小世界。当我们在忙着工作时，许多小生命都各自默默的，静悄悄的来到这片小草原。

除了小孩们每天傍晚都到这里嬉戏，一些野菇野草野花也会无端端冒出头来，成为蝴蝶与虫儿们的美食。一些菌类与寄生植物也会无声无息的攀爬在树干上，形成美丽的图案。

适者生存，弱肉强食，一些弱小的生命也自然成为强者的俘虏。相当凶悍的红蚂蚁遇上八脚蜘蛛也不得不俯首称臣。

一片小草原，有其美丽的一面，也隐藏着自然界的凶险与奥妙。

After a tiring week of workdays, I usually like to spend my weekend with my kids on the grassland opposite my residence.

While my spouse like to plant some vegetables, and my kids like to play with the neighboring kids on the grassland, I like to observe the life of the numerous inhabitants on this grassland and record down some of the interesting happenings through my viewfinder.

It is quite amazing that in a small piece of grassland like this, both fauna and flora can grow very vigorously under a natural ecology system.

Some tiny plant can be seen growing and sprawling up a tree trunk from nowhere in an irregular but interesting pattern. Wild mushroom and flower continues to grow to provide for endless sources of food for the butterflies and bugs in the surrounding.

Of course, there are stronger predators who feed on weaker preys as well such as the fire ant that falls prey to the spider.

Life is indeed miraculous.
