Description


This dragonfly made a very short visit to my garden today. If I hadn't had the camera in my hand when I noticed it there would be no photo. It is a new one in my garden and I think it is a Migrant Hawker, but I should get a definitive ID from my Flickr group for these insects.

I thought you had something about hawks. A real corker of an image. I don't like that they eat butterflies but they are still fascinating creatures.

Again, you've captured the very essence of one of nature's creatures with razor sharp focus, along with the beautiful colors, patterns and textures, A.

I can easily see why Tiffany was so fascinated with dragonflies and used them in his glassworks! Wonderful shot!
