When you're near the water, you'll no doubt see the females dropping their eggs into its depths. We're seeing that at the lake this past week.Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787493532006658679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-50089920168967369522010-09-13T07:12:40.663+02:002010-09-13T07:12:40.663+02:00Zuzana: That chair speaks volumes about your love ...Zuzana: That chair speaks volumes about your love of the outdoors! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16539850495318868267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-61202732545212998412010-09-12T16:03:43.106+02:002010-09-12T16:03:43.106+02:00Elisabeth, Kath, Susan, Nessa, Cathy, Brian, Tina,...Elisabeth, Kath, Susan, Nessa, Cathy, Brian, Tina, Jill, Claudia, Betty, Janine, The Bach, Donna, Mimi, Sandy, Joanna, Maja, Ola, sprinkles, Snowbrush, Jerry and Cheryl, yes indeed, summer is definitely ending here. The early autumn signs are everywhere and even though just a week ago, the sun was warm and strong, now there is definitely a palpable change in the air. My patio, that was so warm and inviting last weekend is now littered with the first fallen leaves...<br /><br />Thank you all for your kind visit and words of compliments. <br /><br />The dragon fly picture was a sheer coincidence of events; I was holding my iPhone inn my right hand, when the insect landed on my left one. I watched it with great interest for a little while, it was almost surreal to have it that close. It seemed not that timid and I could easily open the camera of the phone and take many shots of the encounter. Wonderful stolen moment in time, unforgettable in every way, immortalized by a phone....<br /><br />Thank you all again for stopping by,<br />Xoxo<br />ZuzanaZuzanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02137958790178864561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-69345231978503230662010-09-11T16:11:32.524+02:002010-09-11T16:11:32.524+02:00Your terrace looks so inviting!

It does me, but then every year, I try to go into it with a positive attitude. At least, I'm not anticipating any surgeries this winter (like the last two). <br /><br />Zuzana, I hope it goes okay for you. If not, hop a plane to Arizona, USA, and enjoy a week or two of heaven along about January. Stop off in Oregon on the way, and you might even have company for your journey.

I've somewhat let things over-grow and the walk down to the lower level is out of control. Enjoyed reading your post of the last kiss of summer. How true... Autumn is upon us! Hope you are doing well.

There is still rain, of course, as the season has not yet finished. But it feels different; as if the environment is slowly and very patietly learning that in two months in should come to an end. Still, chances of more hurricanes, and tropica depressions, but for the time being, enjoying a mixture of rain and sun that can only be beneficial to both humans and nature.<br />have a great day!!Claushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06803540562431030465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-53766445604203194702010-09-09T15:09:02.881+02:002010-09-09T15:09:02.881+02:00I have to mention that the dragonfly photo is AMAZ...I have to mention that the dragonfly photo is AMAZING!Jill from Killeny Glenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13639521470702814007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-56438062454061916362010-09-09T15:06:34.673+02:002010-09-09T15:06:34.673+02:00I am ON MY WAY TO YOUR HOUSE right now to sit on y...I am ON MY WAY TO YOUR HOUSE right now to sit on your wonderful chaise!

I really liked the wee corner where you sit and relax. Your fingers with the dragon fly looks cute.
