Dragonfly

Well, this may be my favorite picture I've made.  I was so stunned by the color of this dragonfly and also how transparent the wings are.

We have seen an influx of dragonflies in our area because of our overwhelming mosquito population this year.  The winter was mild and early summer very wet so the mosquitoes had the perfect conditions for reproduction.  Dragonflies are release to help control the mosquito population and since they eat many times their weight in a day, this is a good plan.
