Walk around a pond, 120815
A wanted to take K1 and K2 to play, and so we went to
Lewis Park
While the children played, I just walked along the edge of the small pond there, and found enough to keep me riveted.f
The founatin
and the Cycling Goldfish
started me off, but I noticed these beautiful dragonflies:
There was also this water beetle (at least, that's what I think it was) which was tough to capture because it would keep zipping to and fro:
A
solitary hunter wasp
was looking for a place for its nest, or for prey to stun:
There was death, too, in the pond, where this dragonfly had met a watery end.
Cicadas had left their old selves at the edge of the pond
The very grass was beautiful.
Monarch butterflies were migrating:
Meanwhile, one mammal had decided to get water from the level most suitable...
As the mosquitoes got active, we left the park to the cycling fish.
