Dragonfly

I’ll see these guys flying about the yard every now and then. There are some wetlands down at the bottom of the hill near where Bell Canyon Creek starts, as well as the Chatsworth Reservoir area about three miles north of us.

But I don’t recall ever having one land or sit still so that I could take pictures of it.

Growing up in Vermont, Illinois, and Kansas I had seen dragonflies plenty of times, but out here in the desert they’re a bit more scarce. So a good luck sighting!
