It’s the season for the huge red dragonflies. They’re out swooping over my pool. I should go join them, but I’m sure the water it is too hot since it is still coming in from the mineral hot spring that feeds the pool.

Now a flotilla of white butterflies are swooping around between the dragonflies. Like a busy freeway out there. Lots of cloverleafs. I’d like to get a photo of the dragonflies, but they zoom over and just alight for a second––not long enough to shoot. After ten unproductive minutes, I just focused on a palm frond hanging out over the water, hoping one would light there. Wonder of wonders, one did, but just as I snapped it, Morrie ran up with his ball and scared it away! Morrie!!!

I’m going in to download the SD card to my computer and see if I got anything.

Lo and behold, I did!

Until Morrie arrived—

and there were none!

The End
