Dragonfly Resting

“Clouds of insects danced and buzzed in the golden autumn light, and the air was full of the piping of the song-birds. Long, glinting dragonflies shot across the path, or hung tremulous with gauzy wings and gleaming bodies.”

Arthur Conan Doyle, Sr. (1859-1930)

 

This dragonfly was caught in a sudden downpour and took refuge on a plant not in the rain so he will not get wet.
