This one have just become a real dragon-fly. In the morning it was a nymph.
There have been about 14 nymph in our pond this year. Eating young fish...I saw it myself!

Yes, Drc726, but it's good for our pond, because we didn't know what to do with all the fish we had. Too many...That's why it was considered to buy a tortoise! And...we're lucky! Our friends brought to us a little one. It is a real fish-hunter!

My,my,dragonfly,what big eyes you have. They've been around for more than 300 million years - you can't improve on perfection. You just have to stop and stare in wonder at them don't you. Terrific photos Uma.

Yes, Tasteyg, some legs are missing. It was a little unsuccessful transformation. :(
