winged

My admiration for creatures that fly isn't limited to birds, especially this time of year when dragonflies and damselflies are in abundance.  It seems every body of water, meadow, walkway or even roadway is currently a flight path for those in the odonata family.

I've visited Reflections Lake twice in the last month with family and friends from out-of-state, and I look forward to strolling this trail again.  This is where I spotted the insects above and the scenery + fauna below.  It must be beautiful come autumn as the marsh grasses and tress change color.
