Captain Obvious whispers - 'turn them sideways dopey!'

27°C / 81°F

Flies , Azolla , and Critters garden
Sunny 24°C / 75°F
Saw this little beasty yesterday on the Red Azolla in the bog area – actually in the new pots that are replacing the bog area. It’s wings looked misshapen but that may have been the light playing tricks, and it was constantly moving its tail – with the fascinating blue bead on i...
