What a pretty color. Is this a seasonal critter?

[manuleanders]

naaaw, so nice! Al those tiny specs.

[nanila]

Yes, the adults are only around in summer/early autumn. We've seen them here ever year so far (five summers), so they seem to be happy with our garden!

[nanila]

Yes, they're really lovely in sunlight - almost translucent. :)
