What wildlife did you spot today?

How do you get any work done at all?
I must get back up to the Hebrides; maybe next year - though the missus has her eyes on Shetland and Orkneys

about half an hour ago i had an encounter with a land crab (who -- as the name suggests-- live on land rather than near the ocean. they can be found waayys up in the mountains and usually come out after rain. not sure how common this is for crustaceans, but the females carry the young ones with them...)

Saw a gorgeous blue dragonfly on my stumble into the town today by the pond. Watched it for ages, but it was gone when I came back. First one I've seen this year. There is a bench by the pond, and I often sit for a while on the way home, watching the squirrels, birds, and pondlife.

That must have a term?

A coven?
A Triad ?
A Menage et Scat?

Not seen a huge amount of butterflies this year. But, spotted this Comma taking a minute.
