I will be looking for your photos of them in your delightful blog, which my readers can access by clicking on your name.<br /><br />Thanks, Caroline. I was going to toss that photo because I didn't get the whole critter, but then I thought again, how perfectly it represented what we most often see. And he has a really cute little bum, doesn't he?

Thank you, for teaching this long-time resident, many new things.<br /><br />Oh those masses of Common Blue Violets, which ornament the bank beneath the pergola. <br /><br />Must go! Must see! Must enjoy!<br /><br />And of course, must take photos. :-)<br /><br /><i><b>"A fine bunch of water lilies you turned out to be. <br />I'd like to see anybody make me wash, <br />if I didn't wanna."</b></i> <br />~GrumpyAuntie sezzzzzz...https://www.blogger.com/profile/16170232476926222740noreply@blogger.com
