Wildlife Snuggery Crochet Hanging Basket

Meet Leilani a Possum in the care of Kinjarling Marsupial Rescue.  When this Snuggery was hung in her enclosure Leilani was quick to snuggle up in it and that is how these crochet hanging baskets came to be called a "Snuggery".

    Amazing photos, particularly the first one where it looks like the 2 dragonflies are one.

      I'd never seen mating dragonfly's before - it's quite incredible

      We were out for a walk and I had to follow the dragonfly's around as they flew off every time we stood on a twig

    Oh wow cool!! You took these pictures? That's just so cool! Talk about being there at the right moment. Was it difficult to catch them not moving?

      I was definitely a challenge! They kept flying away a few feet every time we got too close.

    Dragonflies are so difficult to capture sometimes, but you did a nice job of it!
    Found you on Pierced Wonderings. :)

      They don't like to keep still to have their photo taken that's for sure.

      I'm not expert on the mating habits of the dragonfly but I think that's what they are doing. They can fly at the same time - bizzare.
