Older

Took some time out this afternoon to have space and walk the camera so  texted a farmer friend to ask if I could sit by his pond on the hill. There sadly was nothing on the pond but in the brambles near the edge there were numerous common darters. 

This is an older female common darter who certainly didn't mind the attention and a photo op in the sunshine. 

A huge thank you for all the messages and the support. It is really appreciated.

No news is well...no news ...
