Have you given him a name?


B-)

Sounds like a "floater".


"Floaters" is what they are knicknamed by us. Far to early for flies
yet, though. It got down to 0C at 0621 this morning, just before the
sun rose as it was a clear night. Looks set to be another warm, 15C+,
sunny day today. 4.4C now (0745). If it stays like this the daffs
might start to bloom by the end of the week.

I bought a Cape Sundew, they are very efficient at catching small
flies and mine even managed to capture a small moth last summer.
