While we were looking for Dragonflies at Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge in Cambridge Maryland, I found this Blue Dasher on a Trumpet Vine. I liked the orange-red color of the blossom with the blue of the Blue Dasher. It stayed there for about a half hour as I was photographing other Dragons. There was a large amount of Dragonflies buzzing all around me.
What a cool angle. 🙂
Thanks! You can tell it’s near the end of the season. The dasher’s wings are pretty beat up.
Yes, I took a picture of a dragonfly on a window, and it was so exhausted, it didn’t even bother to fly away. They are such magical creatures. 🙂
They are fun to watch and photograph. Especially when you an get closeup details!
