Sunny, hot and humid
A good day to be in or near
the water, and so we packed the cooler and drove over to our nearby swimming
hole, Long Pond.
Today’s blog will be short on
verbiage and include some shots of some beautiful creatures of which I simply
don’t know enough about. The
Odonates, the dragonflies and damselflies, are so abundant at this time of year
that I am truly remiss in now knowing 1 % of what I should know as an amateur
naturalist living in New York. And
so, as soon as I finish writing this blog entry, I will get on-line and order
by first field guide to the odonates of North America. In the meantime, let me share some of
the images of these beautiful insects that I captured today while at the
pond. If anyone out there reading
my blog can help in the identification, drop me a line or post same on the
Comments section so that I can update the captions ASAP. Otherwise, you’ll just have to wait for
my field guide to be delivered at which time I’ll come back and edit this
page. Thanks for you patience!
