I’m all out of ideas so I’m falling back on the old stand-by – nature photographs and a cute seal.
The seal did its part, but the camera work could have been better. The need for better camera work is a contiuing feature of this blog.
Here’s a selection of dragonflies, or damsel flies. I’ve not been doing too well at identifying them this year. I must do better in the coming year. But you’ve heard that before, haven’t you?

It’s an orchid at Strumpshaw Fen – not sure what sort – sorry
Must do better on flower ID too.
I do have some proper subjects to blog about, but I’m just varying the pace for a day or two. That sounds feasible, I think…
Everything looked very good, including you seal clip. I love that orchid!
It took me back to the Spring. The seal merely takes me back to a blustery day in December, which is less fun.
I thought that sealcam did pretty well.
Thank you. The video clips are never quite as good as I remember once I get them home. 🙂
I take a lot of pictures that are like that.
Glad it’s not just me!
Tried and true is great! Made my day to see that adorable seal and those lovely flowers.
I like the way it brings its flipper up to its face. 🙂
Me, too. As though the seal were trying to hide. Maybe it was.
You can never tell with seals – they are mysterious creatures…
