Camo Gear

So well camouflaged this elderly female common darter was just enjoying basking in the late afternoon sunshine. Had the dogs gambolling along not disturbed her so that I caught the glint of the sun on the wings I would never have seen her! Gone are her beautiful, colourful, yellow, orangey and green markings of the summer and I feel her days are numbered with the cold snap due at the end of the week.
