Description
Dragonfly Landed by Debra Martz Captured this dragonfly after it finally landed. It was zipping up, down and all around...they are fast. With a great amount of rain this early June in South Texas, they have plenty of mosquitoes in which to feast upon!
While trying to ID this dragonfly, which I did not (drop a note in comments if you know) I ran across this interesting information..... "Dragonflies and damselflies, like cockroaches, are one of the oldest types of insects. The only thing that has changed about dragonflies and damselflies, known as Odonata, are their size. In prehistoric times, when dinosaurs could be found roaming the earth, odonata were as big as hawks. Odonate fossils have been discovered in Kansas, Siberia, and many other parts of the world. They had wingspans of about thirty inches and were the largest insects to ever live."
