Aliens in my Yard

Ugly little thing, but beautiful at the same time.

From a distance you can’t see the webbing in the wings. It looks like it’s holding up small black flags.

I can’t decide if it’s head looks like a skull or some kind of bizarre alien.

Ancient alien living in my yard, yeah, that’s it.

  1. Cool dragon! It’s always cool to see them up close and personal. Great shot!

    1. We had a pretty good cold front come through. I guess it didn’t like it. It sat in the same spot for about 18 hours. Was nice to get up close and have it just sit there. Creepy looking little things.

  2. Most of my dragonfly pictures are of where they were a second ago. Nice shot.

  3. I try to imagine how we look to them. Can you imagine what they looked like – and how formidable they must have been – millions of years ago when they had 4 foot wing spans?

    1. At this size they’re fun to play with.

      With 4 foot wingspans, I’d probably be lunch.
