Greenbottle (Fly)

Dull and overcast, the kind that I remember so much. Unlike those who can go out in any weather, I can't. So, here is one that I did last time it was sunny; when was it???????????

  29. You are not the only one!
    It is the raining season here in Hong Kong too. On the bright side, it makes you appreciate the sun even more when it comes out!

  30. They really are very attractive when seen closely, great captures Bob! Not quite so attractive when buzzing round your head or dining table though ;-)

    The weather has been a bit better here today I hope it is where you are and that you have been able to get out doing what you love most.
