Fearless Dragonfly

I saw this Dragonfly as I was hiking down a trail and hoped he would stay around just long enough for a close up. Remembering they typically come back to a perch, I approached slowly and sure enough, even though he would fly away, he would always come back to this twig. The final image is full frame which means my lens was just inches away from him! Thanks Mr. Dragonfly 🙂

Variegated Meadowhawk

It always surprises me when I come across a Dragonfly while hiking in the Preserve because I associate them with water and there is usually none in sight! I followed this female Variegated Meadowhawk (sympetrum corruptum) for a while and was rewarded when she finally lighted and actually let me get very close.
