I've been a little unwell, having eaten some ice cream which I didn't realise had a sweetener in it that acts as massive trigger of IBS symptoms.
Oof. Not nice.
The sun has decided to make a few rare appearances in the last few days, and that has meant that some nice insects have made an appearance. Such as the lovely male banded demoiselle I found having a restful moment on the pavement of all places. and then a comma enjoying the sun by the River Devon while having a chat with a bee.
By lucky chance, this is one of the best shots I've ever taken.
I myself then went to enjoy the sun at Rumbles cafe, although unable to sit on a flower like the comma did.
Fraction too heavy, you see.

It is good to see damselflies around and the comma butterfly is very striking.
ReplyDeleteThat first shot of the Comma should grace the cover of a wildlife magazine - do send it off somewhere Si. Hope the horrid IBS has settled down.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos, Banded Demoiselles are my favourite damselflies! I've not seen a Comma this year though. Hope your IBS has settled down now.
