Pond Visitors

Blue Dasher - (Pachydiplax longipennis)

This little guy was hanging out around our container pond yesterday. Isn't he cute? Blue Dashers are friendly little beasts and will let you get close enough to take pictures. I like this one where he was perched on one of the Blue Pickerel flowers.

The bees like our pond flowers, too.

Saturday Morning

Summer glories.

300 gallon backyard pond.

Happy face--his favorite human is at home today!

The backyard pond today

A tiny spider has spun her web around a flowering pickerel plant in our container pond. Can you see it?

Under the surface, the pair of  wild bream are making themselves at home, too. There are about two dozen baby fish in there!
