    Thank you rosa.

    This was the first toad I had seen in ages. I think that they must be shyer than the frogs. Then yesterday, Hubby found a really tiny one down on the lower patio and I put him over in an overgrown bed with the froglet I had put there 5 minutes earlier.

    Thank you FANCY, it is about 6 x 8 meters. You'll see it when you visit us next year.

    Thank you rosa. They are not too clear but the dragonflies were moving so much that I couldn't do any better. I must have taken at least 25 and had to delete so many. Still, I was pleased that I got these few.

    Thanks walnut. I was actually trying to catch the red dragonfly and ended up with this lovely reflection as well.
