We are very lucky, we live in suburbia and have a small pond in our garden and yet we get dragonflies every year who lay their eggs in our pond and once the larvae are mature they crawl onto our garden fence to hatch out - I really wish I'd taken photo's of them emerging, I've sat and watched them unfold and dry out their iridescent wings in the sunshine before they fly off, nature is a wonderful thing isn't it.
There are two spots I can stop and watch them. They are an inch or two I suppose.Sounds like this could be a game!! (Don't think I've ever seen a dragon fly! It looks pretty huge!! )
We get lots of dragonflies darting around as well as herons flying about....they're huge!!
I did worry about mozzies but thankfully i haven't seen any.
Yes but sadly nature being nature, a bird comes and eats the dragonfly.Because the dragonfly larvae are formidable predators and eat all the mozzie larvae! Hooray!
