Funny, yesterday was the spider, and I got a bunch of comments like “ew” and “ick.” Today I have this guy, and I will get more positive comments, if any. Seems like a fine line between the two. Somehow the Dragonflies get a ‘cute’ pass. When really they are not far off from flying spiders, or maybe e they are, I don’t know, I take photos, not study bugs. I do know the dragonfly is an insect, and the spider is not, but you get my point. You wake up with either on your face, and the reaction will be about the same.

Out taking photos of the drought, “oh look, tons of dragonflies, maybe I can get one in flight.” 15 minutes, 435 photos later – this is the one shot I got that is worth sharing.

In search of hummingbirds today, I get a better photo of a dragonfly. The hummingbird hid from me in the tree. I will try again soon.
