Description

This Dragonfly was acting a bit odd last night. Unsteady on his feet, I wondered if maybe he was injured by a car? A swatter? I don't see any physical injuries, though .. so, who knows. I took his little picture anyway, whether he was in the mood or not. A bit different from the other Dragons I've snapped. Thanks so much for all your kind and wonderful comments on yesterdays image ... it's flattering to know it had been added to a few fav's. :) Have a fantastic day :) Shari

It does look different with it's tail curving that way, but a terrific image.

Great photo of the little guy. Love the green leaf background and you can count each little pane of his wing, as though it were a small window. HUGS!!!

A very delicate shot. The soft tone due to DOF is really great! The "strange" behaviour you've observe may be due to poisoning. Today there are many "poisons" due to human activities. And specialy poison agains insect. If this poor guy has eat an insect which was intoxicated he can of course get the poison too. In fact it may be anything. Thanks for this beautiful macro. Have a good noon, G.

LOL! Always acting like the local vet arent ya. Maybe he was just a bit tipsy...did that thought ever cross your mind? I mean if mooses can get drunk on old apples i would think this little fella could also find himself a somewhat contaminated waterhole. LOL. Beautiful shot btw...did i mention that? Probably not..cause im too busy rambling..sigh. See ya later! Enjoy your humpday Shari! #:O)
