Thank you, Vicki 🙂 I have seen these pair doing their thing around my pond quite a few times, but has been difficult to get a shot in case I stretched too far and fell I in the pond. Patience paid off in the end 🙂

Beautiful colours and composition. They seem quite happy! You should make an enlargement and hang it in your dining room to amuse and delight your friends and family!

Thank you, Brian, and thank you for making me laugh 🙂 I think if I hung something like that in my dining room, shortly afterwards I would no longer have a dining room or a house to go with it. Just me and my suitcase, lol 🙂

I’m not sure who Brian is, but I’m glad to make you laugh! Just bring yourself and your suitcase to our place – we’ll put you up for a few nites – but you would surely miss you buggy friends!
