Baetis Nymph (Romanian Tiers….No, I am not Romanian, well….)

Baetis Nymph

Posted this site a few days ago; you’re not exploring it. Work your way into the English text portions, fake the rest. Many excellent patterns, excellent photography. Eastern European tiers (and one token Irishman). Beautiful quill body.  

Odd aside to the above title. I grew up thinking I was German and whatever else. Went through a geneaology stint and discovered father’s side English/French and on mother’s side German and French. But the French fled to southern Hungary in 1700’s. Today, that Banat region is not Hungary but rather Northeastern Serbia and close to the border with Romania. So, hell, maybe at least culturally I am almost a Romanian.
