I was thrilled to get these photographs of a female laying eggs, or 'ovipositing', were taken during a late afternoon stroll at Gilkicker. She either did not notice us, or chose to ignore us, intent only on selecting a spot and finishing the process - which must have been rather hard work with the ground baked and trampled. We also managed to take a short 'mini-video' with a digital camera.
