Description
We found an injured dragonfly on our doorstep during a cold evening. She was having trouble flying so we brought her inside for the night. Her right eye has a dent in it. The next day was warm and sunny when we took her outside and off she flew. This is the best photo out of all the photos that I took. She zooms better! Not really happy with the Nikon that I bought during the summer.
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated.

A one eyed dragon fly! Must make it difficult to flight straight.

Thanks to you he could go back flying in the sun, and I'm glad you showed us these lovely photo; the front looks great, f.e. the feet and nose, splendid in zoom, but such pity of that one eye, huh? I have to think of your story, that you once on a Sunday after leaving church, that you saved a turtle, and brought it to your pond, right? You really are such a caring person, Dana, in many ways. God bless you, my friend.

Dragonflies are such fascinating and beautiful insects, with their tinsel wings that almost look like little stained glass windows. :) I remember once holding a live one in my hands; it was whirring away like a miniature dynamo. How were you able to tell this one was a female, by the way? :D
