Green Dragonfly Taking a Rest on a Curled Up Lilypad
I've always had an afinity for dragonflies and have quite a collection of shots that I've taken of them. They do a lot for us to include consuming mostquitoes and gnats as well as polination a bit like bees do. Once they get to maturity, sadly, they don't live long, but they live GREAT....like we all should hope to.
