Description
This little critter landed inside our window the other day and my mother called me down stairs to see him, since he seemed to be to stupid to fly back out of the window... so I took a few shots before pushing him on his way. He was a lovely big solid looking thing, but I didn't want the cat to try and catch him.This is a big picture as I didn't feel like uploading a load of shots seperately. Hopefully the compression after resizing hasn't damaged the images too much. Enjoy

thank you very much. We have the smaller ones in our garden in the Summer, but I'm not sure where this guy came from since he was quite a bit larger than the ones I usually see

Lovely shots. I think it is a good idea to use several sizes on one pic like here. It works so well.
^_^ Really great. We have lots of dragonflies around here too. *smile* I like them. Just their larvae are nasty, but when you think what becomes of them...interesting

Yeah that's true, the larvae are horrid, but they turn into intriguing creatures ^^
