Four-spotted Chaser









No need for digiscoping with this one. It perched right next to me on the edge of the old swimming pool (now a wildlife/fish pond) for several minutes while the sun went in.

  3. I'm up too late (2:45 a.m. my time) but glad of it since, at this last moment before dropping off into bed I had the good luck of stumbling onto your great photos.

    Just lovely those lacy flying beasties and spring flowers. Well done!

    If ever you have a chance check out my site and blog.

    Keep creating your beauty. It's a gift.

  4. Not a really common species in southeast Michigan, USA, as we lack boggy habitats they seem to like. However, I might have found one yesterday in a new location. Can't wait to verify it.

    And Katie, I've tagged you with a book meme -- if you decide to respond, I look forward to learning what you read.

  5. Hello!

    Beautiful photography! May I add your blog to my blog list?

    Thank you for giving me (and others) interesting material to read. Reading blogs is a great joy and allows us to experience so much more than the traditional media/literature.

  6. Amazing pictures. I'm truly jealous. I've intended to purchase a Canon EOS 20D for a long time, and I noticed that the photos here are mainly using Coolpix cameras. Is there a reason that those would be preferred to the 20D? Thanks in advance, James.
