its was just huge!!


using a twenty dollar bill to show just how huge this dragonfly was that rested on the laundry hanging on the line last sunday~he was oh so very cool and i wanted to get some better pics but dead batteries just don't do the job~we had them flying around the yard in droves all summer long at dusk~

It's beautiful Tammy! Those blue markings are so gorgeous and the pattern in the irridescent wings is so cool. I loved enlarging the picture and seeing it up close and personal!

We had a lot of dragonflies and butterflies this year too...more than usual. We had a bright red dragonfly that I saw a couple times but never did get a picture of him...wish I did...he was amazing and I've never seen a red one before! We had a pretty brown and white one too. We usually just see the blue ones. XO ~me
