Two Dragonflies

I decided to go fishing this afternoon. Fishing sucks so luckily I took my camera too. These are two dragon flies I photographed on a cement walkway leading to a fishing dock.

It is interesting to me, when I use a fill flash some insects like spiders or these dragonflies turn their heads toward the light afterward. They know something is going on.

Yes, it definitely is. Cold weather is coming on. This has been a great past few months for me and I have learned much.

Thanks to you and a number of people here who have explained much to me.

Nice shootin' Dennis. Your male is a Black Meadowhawk while the female is an Autumn Meadowhawk although the legs seem a bit dark. Meadowhawks are late season flyers.
