R and I went to Charlecote this morning, expecting more of the excitement we witnessed on Friday, but the deer seem to have got over whatever it was that put a gale in their collective tail at the end of … Continued

Mono Monday: In and out

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

After I’d been around the village this afternoon and taken a lot of middling photos of insects I didn’t care about very much, I thought I ought to do something useful, so I got a net and skimmed the ponds … Continued

A couple of weeks ago I met a very nice family by the pond in Trench Wood. The parents were teaching their children about wildlife, and the older child especially – a boy of around eight – was keen, and … Continued

R and I had entry tickets for Charlecote this morning, but when we discussed the trip yesterday we were both ambivalent about going; we didn’t quite decide to call it off, but it seemed more than likely at that point … Continued

Flowery bower

Bright

Someone told me today that I was looking in the wrong place for dragonflies. I really try quite hard not to sound like a complete smartarse, especially when talking to civilians, but I confess that a snippy response almost emerged … Continued

Shabby

Another Thursday, another visit to Croome with R, and another Migrant Hawker. He’s not as well posed as the one I blipped on Tuesday, but I can hardly blame him for that. He’s also pretty shabby, and so is the … Continued

Rainbow Hawker

I had my hair cut today, for the first time in eight months. My lovely hairdresser, who was just down the road in Broadway when we first began our relationship a quarter of a century ago, has been moving steadily … Continued

Spotlit

I sent a few hours today at Croome, where it was hot and sunny, and lots of people were sitting around the lake – some with picnics – as we would all have liked to do during August if the … Continued
