Wow Bethie! Thanks. I'm so glad that you guys liked them. I have to tell you that I found this fellow so interesting (and pretty) that after taking pics, I just sat and observed him. The more I watched and looked, the more fascinated I was with it.
WOW!! My favourite insect, when I was a kid I used to call it a miniature helicopter Great photogarphy!!!
Sjoerd, You mentioned that you'd like to see some of our dragonflies. This was the only one I could get to pose! The photo isn't nearly as good as yours, but this is the only one I could get--they are quick little things! The dragonfly is on an Autumn Sage (salvia greggii).

My goodness, MG--that dragonfly has nice colouring. I appreciate you taking the time to show this fellow. This is a good foto, I can see him quite well. Thanks also for including the name of the plant that he was on.
wow! congrats on the pic of the month, sjoerd. dragonflies remind me of my childhood - so long ago. we used to have lots of them once the monsoon was over, in all imaginable colours. thanks for the beautiful picture
