Flying dragons....


Click on that dragonfly. Look at those lovely wings, how transparent and beautiful. The eyes are huge.....I thought mine were big for my face......
Funny how warm weather brings out insects of all kinds. It's like we've been transferred into another realm of crawling, flapping, creeping, buzzing and biting. Quite a difference between winter with NO bugs to summer with ALL bugs. Perhaps their existence is much more pronounced here because the season is so short and in that short time-frame they have to mate, lay eggs, do their pupae thing and hatch.....then make life totally miserable for we humans before fall comes.
Anyway, there is a beauty about them......sort of.......a beauty in the way they're made to survive.
I do enjoy the dragonflies and butterflies but that's about all the beauty I can handle!
