Last week on holibobs
- a deer running down the road in front of me
- 2 eagles, separately
- owls
- seals
- lots of sheeps
This week at home
- Kestrel and buzzards both local
- an emperor dragonfly, it had got itself wedged into the net of the kids trampoline. I heard a buzzing of wings fom my office but couldn't quite place it, then tracked it down while I was out watering the plants. It had got its thorax all the way through up to the wing roots. I was in two minds whether to try adn tease it through or cut it out. I ended up squashing the wings flat with one hand around the net, adn teasing it through forwards grasping around the thorax, my main concern was to not damage the eyes or wings. In any event, despite the buzzing of wings and curling of the tail sections, I managed to free it and it was off and away as soon as it could. Happy endings
