Dragon in Distress

Sadly this Dragonfly chose the wrong day to emerge.  The strong windy conditions have caused it problems and it ended up getting caught on this stem - one of its still soft wings ended up wrapping around the stem.  The little dragon was blowing around the stem like a flag on a pole.  

I've not ended up with a great shot, simply because as soon as I saw what was going on through the lens I stopped taking photos without bothering to change my settings and raced off to intervene.

I cut the stem and untwisted the fly's wing, but the end of it was still definitely damaged.  It was able to fly away, but I don't think that it is really capable of hunting and surviving.
