Garden Visitor

Post by lazygardner »

When I took this photo, the wings were down like a dragonfly, but later when I checked on her again, her wings were folded up over her back like a damselfly. Has anyone else seen a dragonfly do that?

Before criticizing someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them you will be a mile away and have their shoes!

Maybe it was like a butterfly newly "formed" and had to dry its wings? How far from standing water are you? That's all I can come up with. :)

I am not good at guessing distances, but I think it was too far for him to walk. :lol: It was very chilly that morning, so I'm sure that is why he wasn't flying.
