Stony Stratford, Bucks.

Actually, this is one of the more unusual forms of the Harlequin. However I'm posting this image as I thought some of you might be interested to see just what the lady is hiding under her wing cases

Nice photo

Though I do have to admit she looks a lot more pretty with her shell in place

I mentioned earlier that this is (well in my experience anyway) one of the more unusual forms. This is not the same individual but another taken same location same day. I've seen thousands of Harlequins (literally) however I've only seen three of this form and all on exactly the same day.
