Bathroom Rescue, Pt. 3 - _TNY_4005
Back in late June (of 2023) me, the wife, our son and my mom took a boat out to the island of Svartsö (literally black island) in the Stockholm archipelago.
It was a wonderful day and while walking, we saw lots and lots of black-tailed skimmers (Orthetrum cancellatum). They kept landing all around us, but just raising the camera scared them off again which to be honest was a bit frustrating.
In the evening, we had dinner at the Bistro Sågen which was built in an old saw-mill on the island.
Before ordering, I however went to the bathrooms which were in a converted work caravan a bit off to the side. Well, when I got in there, I found this female dragon inside the window above the washstand where she had tired hereself out trying to get out.
With her tired, I didn't have too much trouble coaxing her onto my finger and took a couple of photos besore carrying her outside again.
Do zoom in on the eyes on this one - the detail on the compound eyes came out really great here!
