Oh, I can take no credit for that photograph; it came from my son. But, I do agree, she is a dote.

Lovely to have some nice sunny photographs in these dull days of winter.

Very nice, Cliff.

Super photo, Anthony. That is a perfect green... a well named critter for a change. I'd half expect it to be a yellow cicada, given the vagaries of most nomenclature.... or perhpas you are just calling it that, 'cos he is?

I have a new coat that is almost that colour... expect wildlife photos from the Aberdeen area of the rarely seen giant Scottish Kermit  :-X ::)

Actually, I think it is an April cicada? I just called it green because it is. ;D
