I just read that they only live a few weeks Keith....poor old males, once they have done their job!
Isn't it great when such pictures on here get us thinking and we learn so much!

Fabulous pin sharp detail.

Thanks very much for your interest and comments folks. I hadn't realised that the male died after doing it's bit, so to speak - bit of a rip-off that..!!
