DRAGONFLY

I guess this could be classed as cheating.
Most cats catch birds that we have to rescue.
Not Wimpy, this is the biggest thing he has managed so far.
I took it from him and sat it on one of the garden chairs as I thought it was all in, I went in the house for my camera and it had perched on a plant I got a couple of pics before it took to the wing again and this time it landed high in the russian vine on the shed, I just managed to get 2 macros before it was gone, never to be Wimpied again, I hope.

Great shot, I think you are training Wimpy to bring interesting things home so that you can play with you camera!?! ;>)
