Another day of rushing around allowed me about half an hour at the river in Stratford this morning, searching for dragonflies. It was a warm, sunny day, and there were plenty of insects on the wing, but frustratingly, my only … Continued

Something else

I’ve got far too much to do at the moment to be wasting my time on dragon hunts. On the other hand, it’s going to be a long, Odonata-deprived winter, and the season could end any day now. So. Clear … Continued

R and I went to Stratford this morning, for a meet-up with our co-grandparents, who’ve been staying there over the weekend. We had a delightful chat about the family, sharing anecdotes, and celebrating as ever how clever we’ve been in … Continued

We’ve had another happy day of pootling around, recharging our batteries and enjoying our special family time, but with not many photos taken other than phone shots of the Boy Wonder and the Baby Brother. Luckily, while I was taking … Continued

I lost an hour of my life this morning, trying and failing to upload some Odonata sightings to iRecord. The site has always been buggy – not really surprisingly, because as an academic project with no commercial spinoff value, I’d … Continued

I seem to have managed to pick up some kind of virus – I know not from where, because the Boy Wonder seemed entirely healthy at the weekend, and I hardly ever speak to anyone else unless they happen to … Continued

The temperature went down a few degrees overnight, and I decided it might be cool enough for a walk around Croome. It was still a fairly sticky experience, I have to say, but I managed to circuit half the watercourse, … Continued

R and I are road tripping for the next couple of days, but soon after setting off we had to break our journey in Stratford, where he had a hospital appointment. I used that time to go down to Lucy’s … Continued

Dull

by JDO | posted in: Dragonflies, Invertebrates, Odonata, Worcestershire | 0

It was a deeply dull morning, and it was blowing a hoolie, and everywhere I looked foliage was whipping around, with one or two insects grimly clinging on through the rollercoaster ride, and macro photography became an increasingly ridiculous and frustrating … Continued

“That’s a big camera,” said R, as he approached me along the river bank in Stratford. “What are you photographing?” It was a bold move, I have to say. I’d imagine you can do someone quite a lot of damage, … Continued
