The pond is attracting more and more dragonflies. I have "planted" a couple of dead sticks in the pond cause I think dragonflies like to sit on vertical plants....
Yesterday I saw this big blue one sitting on top of one of the sticks. The other day I saw another one while it was laying eggs in the pond. Very interesting dance.
Here is the blue one from yesterday taken with my sony phone.

Right when I was taking the picture I saw this other beautiful red dragonfly approaching so I hurried in and got my trusty Pentax which has zoom cause I didn't want to scare it away.

| Pentax pictures are just as detailed or more but much smaller in size. Like 2 Mb |
Hope they stay and eat all the mosquitoes. Oh, Tora has started a new habit of pooping in our strawberry bed every day. Not good.... So far I just cover it with soil hoping it doesn't attract too many flies. But I heard cat poop is too strong as manure.
