Rain overnight & colder today, so the garden is quiet.

But here's something different from last night: a common green lacewing (Chrysoperla carnea; 🇩🇪 Gemeine Florfliege) on my office window.

Four pictures: three of the topside from outside, two lluminated with my phone, one backlit only, & one of the underside, seen through the glass.

And here are the four individual images without all the movie malarkey.

If you think about it for a second, it should be obvious that I cheated slightly, flipping the shot taken from inside left-right, so that it would match the orientation of the outside pictures 🤷‍♂️
