Crazy About Birds

Gray Petaltail

This is a dragonfly that is new to me! The Husband more often than not takes off some article of clothing fairly early in our walk when he discovers it's not as cold as he thought it was. This morning when we got back to his shirt it was occupied by this dragonfly. There then ensued a rather comical effort to get a decent photo of it - which - as you can see - basically failed. Everytime I noodged it onto my finger and tried to put it on some vegetation, it immediately flew off and landed somewhere on one of us. At one point it landed on my lip! I have a few photos of it on The Husbands arm, back (see extra), etc. It was remarkably friendly, but not overly cooperative in the photographic sense.
