May Fly.............

This is this fella's only day of free flight. Today he has to find a mate, after which he will die. The female of the species fares no better, once she has layed her eggs then she too will perish.

After living in the cold water of a river or stream for the last three years, it's a shame they won't feel the warmth of the sun on their beautiful and fragile little bodies.

English summers...............!!
