    Not dragonflies but Cockchafers...........used to be inundated with them flying around in the evenings and bumping into windows. Noisy little beggars but interesting to watch.  That was a good 20 years ago and not come across them since. 
    No sizeable pond here so no Dragonflies either  :(

    I think I could catch the b*gger quite easily with a net now @Pete.8  :D
    He's been a permanent fixture for about 18 months. Comes up the steps at the back door for his lunch, and chases the others away if they come too near it. 
    I had dragonflies now and again when I lived round the corner from here. Hopefully get some again. I live across the road from a small NT garden and there'll be loads in there.
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    I first read it as Cockroaches!
    Then I re-read it and was even more concerned!
    Certainly don't want any around here

    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
