Stalking

Crouching in the early morning sunshine today in a field of the most gorgeous coloured and sweet smelling crops ever, I was up for stalking anything that moved; that is walked, flitted, jumped, cantered, bounced or did a fly-by!

I went out to try and stalk the Painted Lady butterfly which I'd seen the other day. No
luck there but the fields are alive with life especially when the sun comes out.

Close up and personal the green lacewing looks so amazing with wondrous colours. The blue blasts right out at you and look at that eye; the almost metallic gold sheen! The winds are translucent and delicately veined and I think they are up there with the dragon and damsel wings for beauty.

A few more from today
