Petaltail Dragonfly

Lately I’ve been noticing a flower that I thought was wilted near my house. But since I was sure that I watered it yesterday, I decided to pick it up. Turns out it’s a black rose!

A black rose!In City Folk, black roses looked more like a dark purple, so I didn’t recognize it as a black rose in New Leaf.

Down by the cliff, just east of my pyramid, there’s some home construction. This is where my previous camper Teddy will be moving in tomorrow.

Sign: This spot reserved for Teddy's new home. -Nook's HomesAnd the campsite is occupied once again, this time by Vesta. She’s nice and all, but she’s not my favorite sheep, so I’m not going to ask her to move in.

Vesta: Hello. I hope it's all right that I've decided to camp here. You have a lovely town.I also spotted Gracie over by the town tree. But she was wanting me to wear flashy clothes for a fashion check. I don’t have anything in terms of flashy clothes, so I didn’t have a chance.

Gracie: Fun and flashy!And I got a letter in the mail from Gulliver over in China. He sent me this red-tasseled lantern, which I put into my museum exhibit.

A red tasseled lantern, that I got from Gulliver, hanging on the wall.But soon after this, a problem popped up: The “photo limit has been reached” issue returned. So I tried my previous fix,  but it didn’t work this time. When I tried taking a picture with the 3DS camera, it said: “The SD card’s photo/video limit has been reached. Cannot shoot.”  So it seems the “fix” was just temporary. Now I had no choice but to move the pictures all to my computer and delete them all off of the SD card. My problem with that is the SD card was nowhere near full. It’s a 4 GB card, and it still had 2.2 GB free. What a joke.

Anyway, I went into the Happy Homes Showcase and there was a new SpotPass home there. It belonged to Steph from Leafy. She likes turtles.

Steph: I'm Steph from Leafy. My home is over at East 10. I like turtles.My favorite room of hers was this library.

A library in the SpotPass home of Steph from Leafy.A bit later, I decided to try to finally catch that petaltail dragonfly I’ve needed. After 20-30 minutes of searching, I finally saw one. It was surprisingly easy to catch!

I caught a petaltail dragonfly! It may be big, but I'm bigger!They were so difficult to catch in City Folk, but they seem to move much slower in New Leaf. At any rate, I’m glad to finally get that petaltail dragonfly. And this marks the first time that my insect collection is larger than my fish collection. This is my 57th insect, and I’ve caught 56 fish.

But as soon as I caught the petaltail dragonfly, Tex wanted to buy it from me! NO!!

Tex: I can't believe it, killer. You have a petaltail dragonfly? I've been wanting that exact thing!After donating it to the museum, I remembered to take a look at my concrete fence. I don’t like it.

The concrete fence around my New Leaf house.And after a quick trip to the island, I returned to find Phineas. He gave me the insect encyclopedia badge, which is a silver badge.

I got the Insect Encyclopedia badge! This shows I'm a fan of bugs!
