Not strictly gardening, but garden related.
Our pond has so far produced 16 newly hatched emperor dragonflies in
the last 2 days and there are still more to come. Last year we just
had a couple as it was the pond's first full year.
Might sound daft but it's so exciting, can't wait to see how many
there are altogether.
Just wanted to tell someone

You lucky person, I would love some to take up residence in my ponds, thus
far no luck. Got something that looks like a potential larvae, but since
they can spend up to 4 years milling around at the bottom of the pond I am
not holding my breath. They are some of our more gorgeous creatures I think.
