Exploring

Tim caught this dragonfly last year at Constitution Gardens. We haven’t been there for over a month because it’s been far too cold to do anything outdoors.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly
unsharp.

That is a spectacularly good macro showing those huge blue-green eyes along with head and front end.
