Noticed this thing keep landing on the same twig while I was working in the garden. It was too high off the ground for the macro lens, and he probably wouldn't have let me get that close anyway. Used the 400mm lens.

Wow. I don't know that I have seen that color before! A guy on a photo forum I am on posts dragonflys all the time. They never hold still for me! Nice clear pic!

My 2-year-old granddaughter is obsessed with "agon flies". I can't wait to show her your picture! Great shot!

You said that about Great Blue Herons too and in a few days there you were posting a pic of one!

Huh? I got a picture of two herons last month. I should maybe try to get closer to some dragonflies now.
