Insects and Spiders

My First Spot-winged Glider Side View

I was able to get one additional view of the new dragonfly but lots of grass stalks in the way, a bit of a challenge to get focused on the insect. So much fun when I realized it was a new dragonfly for me. Even more fun when I read about them & found out they are hard to photograph due to their habit of flying continuously and rarely perching. I got very lucky.
