The Chunker sounds like something to avoid, I thought ours were bad! At the moment it's cooled a little here which is a bit of a relief.

Know what you mean about the humid heat and avoiding bites if possible, I once had a bite from a horsefly which was quite painful:)Rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733563829902335223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8393606565428396544.post-60411897634951948352021-06-22T15:43:27.461+01:002021-06-22T15:43:27.461+01:00It looks a lovely morning out Pam with some great ...It looks a lovely morning out Pam with some great wildlife. Great photos and good to see damsel and dragonflies! Its worrying the lack of butterflies being seen this year by so many people :( I am very wary walking near water re: biting flies!!! I had a bad bite a few years ago from walking by a canal! I don't like hot weather either especially when it gets humid!! :(Ragged Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14090463834740346114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8393606565428396544.post-40846078407282672592021-06-22T14:09:42.983+01:002021-06-22T14:09:42.983+01:00HI Pam, a really terrific walk around with your ca...HI Pam, a really terrific walk around with your camera, I too enjoy the dragonflies and agree its hard to ID them. AND I also agree there is less butterfly than usual. Seems there is less of everything except people these days. I love the shot of the Sedge Warbler! Humid here of course as summer is just rain rain rain here in the east and fire fire fire in the west! I don't know but, I think we need to be using our resources to figure out a way to change the air currents on this planet instead of going to Mars? Have a wonderful week!Sondrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03485055844682296876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8393606565428396544.post-42251621827813843902021-06-22T12:31:20.554+01:002021-06-22T12:31:20.554+01:00After a good healthy breakfast to start your day, ...After a good healthy breakfast to start your day, you had a fine time, Pam! Lots of great sightings. Deer flies and horse flies can be a real nuisance here too, and when they bite they hurt! There is a particularly nasty form in western Canada that is colloquially known as a Chunker since it removes chunks of your skin! And I am with you when it comes to heat and high humidity. It is not pleasant at all. On a cold day in the winter I can dress up and stay warm, but oppressive heat is impossible to escape. Enjoy the summer that has just begun - without too many steamy days, hopefully. David M.
