Thenkew. You should’ve been there; the place was mobbed with dragonflies, two or three species, only one of which ever sat down.

I saw dragonflies nymphs emerge en masse from the Mississippi and molt. So cool.

Neat-o! I don’t think I’ve ever seen those before, though we have tons and tons of dragonflies here. And they are friendly. They always hitch rides on me while I’m canoeing. Yes, they sit on the canoe, but they also sit on me. I had a gigantic greeny-blue one alight on my hand while I was paddling just Saturday, perfectly content to let me hold him up for close examination, as long as he could have a little rest.
I like anybody who eats mosquitoes, even though I have heard they also eat bees.
