DON'T COME ANY CLOSER

This dragonfly was prettier than I've seen lately with his coppery-brown body and unusual dark blue wings and legs- and I liked the expression on his face. It was a special day with lots of company - kind of a family reunion with seven cousins (first & second) and one 104 year old aunt/great aunt, plus one new boyfriend for the 84 year old cousin - so there wasn't extra time to find blip material. Luckily this pretty guy was visiting my garden around 7 pm this evening, so he won the blip award for today. He's standing on snipped off old wood of a hydrangea plant. (Interesting texture.) I didn't want to repeat with another dragonfly, but considering my lack of time as well as his special coloring, I'm happy to find him!
