Hmmm, if they could speak our language, what would they say as I snap their photo?
The second in my “Up Close and Personal” posts offering a brief escape to the beauty of nature as we remain in stay-at-home lockdown. Today I am playing caption that photo just for the fun of it.
Black-tipped Darner
Beat it. I’ not sure what this gnarly thing is that I caught, but it’s mine and I’m not sharing it.
Blue-fronted Dancer Female
Houston, we have a problem. There are some crazy craters in this funky green moon.
Mating Canada Darners
Coitus interruptus. Do you mind? We’re kind of busy here.
Delta-spotted Spiketail
She’s always late! I’ll wait another 5 minutes and then I’m out of here.
Eastern Amberwing
Yes, I’m posing. It’s hard to be humble when you’re just plain stunning!
Lilypad Clubtail
All the greenery around here and I had to land on a prickly thistle. Where’s a lily pad when you need one.
Orange Bluet
Yes I’m a Bluet, but I’m orange. Do you have a problem with that? Well, do you?
Beauty can be a contagion too. No social distancing here. Get up close and personal. It is allowed.
