an unlucky dragonfly...
now preserved in our newly established 'dead insect museum'...
it was found here, at Bristol University Botanic Gardens, well worth a visit if you are in the area...
a teeny, tiny quails egg ( and they are fairly small to begin with) - shall we fry/poach or boil it????
and 'Cabbagy' the butterfly has at last emerged in our bathroom, having been spotted ooching down the window late last summer, making his/her tiny cocoon just above the toothbrushes and then sitting out the winter...
...of course, I haven't done any cleaning for the past six months in order to preserve the perfect habitat and when released Cabbagy flew right over the top of our house and off in exactly the right direction for our allotment...
I didn't take all of these photos - I was not present when the floating dragonfly was discovered...some were taken by Sam who is currently advertising me, what a happy coincidence!
