This female Common Hawker (Aeshna juncea) let me get quite close. She used her front leg to wipe her eye, giving good views of both the top of the head and the mouthparts as the head turned 180 degrees. Balgair Muir, near Fintry.
So I moved the mill forward a little bit at a time and once far enough forward, put it back on the floor, and then "walked" it little bit at a time using the tanker bar in front and back slowly rotating the mill so it was lined up with the corner it was headed.
Stena Scotia heads along Dublin's south wall in the first blazing days of spring sunshine on her first trip to Holyhead, turning heads, thats an old sea dog of course.

After forcing myself to stop building in Nov I have posted this just to show I am actually Painting Ultramarine's (yes I have built a couple of units) but you can see the middle shelf is slowly turning BLUE.
My parents' cute and clever dog Tinka.
She will celebrate in the forest together with us and our dog Tessi, searching for the perfect Christmas tree ツ
I have more cute pictures of our dogs here:
Guillemots with their beautiful speckled blue egg. Just a thought:-
Chocolate brown like velvet
With a penguin silhouette
Fish caught lengthwise in its
Sharp and pointed bill like jet.
Blue eggs so close together
On a ledge they’re cheek by jowl.
With backs against the weather
They greet all with raucous growls.
Complex social living:
Threat, apology and fight,
Their numbers still increasing
Guillemots must have it right.
1,000 London taxi drivers paralyze traffic around Parliament in Olympics protest - 17.07.2012
Around 1,000 London taxi drivers held the first of three "Ply for Trade" protests on 17th July 2012 to protest against what they and their representative organisations - the RMT Union and the United Cabbies Group (UCG) - say are excessively restrictive limitations on the use of the specially created Olympic traffic lanes strictly reserved for the transport of athletes, Olympic officials and elite corporate guests which will cause severe damage to licensed taxi drivers' ability to pick up, transport and drop off passengers for the two month duration of the Olympic games.
Sarcastically nicknamed "Zil lanes" after the exclusive traffic lanes created in Soviet Russia to solely transport Communist Party officials, the often badly-planned lanes appear destined to create chaos and massive frustration for Londoners trying to go about their business, with punitive fixed £120 fines being imposed on anyone caught in these lanes, even though there are many places where it is impossible to get where you're going by road without crossing one of these lanes.
The cabbies descended on Central London, aiming for Parliament Square via Whitehall, all of them with their "For Hire" lights turned on, and very quickly paralyzed the traffic flow as they all sounded their horns and many turning off their engines for a period until made to move on by the police, upon which many drivers purposefully executed partial U-turns and getting stuck across the road, compounding the gridlock.

John and Vicky's ceremony took place at Berkeley Botanical Gardens which was an absolutely amazing location. The lighting was gorgeous and the scenes that unfolded were breathtakingly beautiful.

The Lyons Turning Mill was founded in 1894, where huge sections of granite were turned on lathe-like machines and then polished to make large columns. These pictures are of the remnants of the Turning Mill located near the new Granite Links Golf Course in Quincy.
This is also the proposed location for a future Quincy Quarry and Granite Workers Museum to be established www.quincyquarrymuseum.org/index.html
This was the giant cocktail shrimp that had the crowds ooh-ing and ahh-ing. Quite a generous shrimp (6-1s?) topped a mixed shrimp cocktail (a little soupy and quite briny), paired with some tortilla chips for crunch and added volume, as well as dusting of baby herbs and a wedge of lime. Unfortunately, the prized specimen in my cup was fairly disappointing: messy shelling job (the tail was nearly ripped off), and de-veining (nothing's quite like seeing the fat rope of the digestive system) and the shrimp (although toothsome), a little fishy (i.e. Cantonese = mui).
