It's not certain how much they are appreciated by the fledgelings however as the Bugs often escape by just walking back out of the nest. The one below for example got away, albeit well camouflaged with feathers from inside, smart bug ha ha.

On the animal thread we have seen some nice lizards recently, the pick of the bunch being this young Ocelated or Eyed Lizard in Sierra Nevada, displaying some nice colour and some super spots. King of the Mountains for sure.

The dragonfly below is a female Epaulet Skimmer (I think). It's a common species around here except that this shot was taken above 2000 m up in the Sierra Nevada, and not close to any water. Quite remarkable I would say.
