You lucky Fella

 It was about 3 weeks ago, a wonderful, warm sunny day in September when I noticed an insect resting on my notes on the coffee table.  Could it be a wasp? It was beautiful whatever it was resting there peacefully. I looked for a fly swatter, couldn't find it. Then I thought of Ananka who loves insects and all animals for that matter.

First I opened a door to see if the fresh air would entice the insect to leave. It started moving slowly to the floor.  I decided to close the door and swept him up carefully in a tissue and dumped him in the garden.  I thought your time hadn't come, you lucky fella!

    It's great that you saved the insect; yes, they should live outside in freedom!

    Good for you Christine. I always try to do that, unless it's ants in the house (just because you never get 1-you get a million). I'm glad this guy had a second lease on life.

    I would save him too but first, I as a macro photographer, you know me, I'd snap a few thousand pictures first.
