A New Dragonfly & Damselfly
My 10 yr old nephew accompanied me on my afternoon walk today and thanks to his very young eagle eyes, I managed to get pics of a new dragonfly and my first damselfly! I am quite excited and yes, life is such that this is great excitement :) and totally fun! Whether my fertile imagination or not, even my nephew commented that they do not get all excited and fly away so much anymore when I am around - possibly because I have been tromping through every day....who knows? This evening is set aside to do a bit of research and see if I can discover the names - the amber and brown striped wings are Halloween Pennant Dragonflies as I discovered and Baker Watson was kind to confirm. It was another windy day here which means at least 60% of the pics come out blurred but I was pleased with those that came out! YAY!
