I have many that are quite small & in shades of blue and
aquamarine. Some fool told me they bite. I never tempted
any of them so I don't know for sure. Tomorrow I'll go
out and see what they will do! Now this is exciting news!!!

snip One of the reasons I went to the internet before was to see if I
could find
any data on the life cycle of dragon flies as I know this will sound
stupid
but there was an exact replica of this guy who frequented my pond last
year.
Couldn't be the same one could it? Remember, I'm in southern
California -
no
freezing allowed here. (At least at my elevation.)
We have both color's here at our pond and garden too. One is so friendly
that he/she actually follows us around the yard and zips by our faces when
we work around the pond. He rests on a plant stake nearby and we see him
daily. I spray with the hose lightly and he flies thru it. We call him our
'pet' insect. They really like plant stakes or similar to hang onto.
