Are you sure he's from Buckingham 'cause I think I saw him in Wales. lol Actually, there seem to be so many varieties of dragonflies. The wings are always different. I want to know how Richie knows this is a male. He is at a nice angle and fills the screen well. See, now I'm calling it a he! Sheesh!
Chiggers are terrible things to have around WC. I am glad you didn't let them ruin this fine shot of the Dragonfly. It spread its wings and posed for you. Wonderful post.
Just wanted you to know I viewed your pretty image. I am recovering from botched eye surgery (cataract removal ) that did not go right. I will recover normal sight but it will take time.
The sweetest thing in the world, particularly when compared to the mosquitoes which prevail here - and I would not care to take pics of them but to kill - after they have drunk my/Boris [he has some less hairy parts although very limited] blood. SAM [the mosquito fighter - these days]
