One of the drawbacks of being a bug is that people tend to lump you into groups. For instance, many folks would look at this insect and say it’s a ‘dragonfly’. While a Twelve-spotted skimmer is a type of dragonfly, it’s sorta like seeing a golden-crowned sparrow and just saying ‘it’s a sparrow’. True, but that falls short … not as bad as just calling it a bug or an insect, but still.
I too like to photograph dragonflies, this one is a real beauty. Thanks for sharing and many greetz, Rudi
Thanks, Rudi. For some reason I didn’t get notified of your comment until today.
Too strange. It happened with two comments from the same post. Weird.
Beautiful capture, Allan!
Jeez, Marcus. How come this comment just showed up today? How weird.
Same with another from this same day. But thanks.
