Astounding.
The blur on the parent's wings, the shaft of sunlight, the poor little hungry chap in the foreground, the turquoise of the dragonfly disappearing down that maw, and, not least, the wonder of a baby being able to almost swallow the parent's head !
To think that all this drama has going on for millennia, and thanks to you, we see it too.
It's a shame I cannot vote twice.
