    You should have eaten them Toby. If you take the wings off first they are quite nice and a good source of protein.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.

    They sure are loud this year - they seem a bit late but usually start February.

    Has anyone got a theory that they go louder if they start later in the season? Maybe some kind of compensating?

    Has anyone else seen the huge dragonflies out over the past month or so?Name: DSCF1243 Dragonflies.jpg Views: 711 Size: 572.7 KB

    These suckers were nigh on 150mm long, a week or so ago in Wgtn
