broad bodied chaser dragonfly

a lot more detail can be seen by viewing large if you have time or the inclination

We had a load of people round in the morning to watch the decider of the Lions' tour. Such an exciting game and such a good win.

Graham and a couple of friends spend most of the day trying to put together the new pig houses. The instructions said that it should take 30 minutes to build, it took three men about three hours and it still isn't finished. It is a farrowing house with bars around it which give the piglets somewhere to lie without fear of being laid on by their mother. It also has a door in the back so you can see what is going on. The pigs are due to farrow in about eight days time.

I spent some time spraying the two old donks with insect repellent which they absolutely hated. Joey Boy's bites seem a lot better, but unfortunately the sick chicken had to be put out of its misery.
Wonderful detail and like the colours!

Beautiful colours and details - even whatever dead thing is hanging on the web. SHame about the hen but can't wait to see the piglets. The question is did any of the men look at the instructions?
