It's amazing the varieties!!! The different spots on the wings, the different coloration between wings & body. And when we were kids we just thought they came in brown, blue & green ~~~ there's SO much more!

Debra: That is so sweet. *Blush* It takes me @ 20 shots to get a decent one.
Ann: I don't even remember seeing dragonflies as a kid ... I'm sure they were there but I just wasn't as observant back in the olden days! Rolling on the floor laughing
