Having a rest on my washing line this morning.

Any ideas... Common Darter maybe?

Thanks

Yep, looks like a washing line to me

.... and a Common Darter too.

It's not every day you see wildlife on your washing line .... well spotted!

I think your right! This one is a female Common Darter.

Thanks Richard and Graham,

Damn now I know it IS the washing line I will be sent to hang things on it now!

I'm afraid that is your penalty for being aware of the washing line and what hangs on it .... albeit a dragonfly today

.

Best of luck with the household chores .... let us know of any other interesting wildlife sightings
