~*~ Mosquito Hawk ~*~


 

BetterPhoto.com Editor's Pick   		Mosquito Hawk
Mosquito Hawk
American Indians nicknamed the dragonflies and damselflies 'Mosquito Hawk'
because they eat so many mosquitoes!

Hand held macro.

This 'Mosquito Hawk' was flying around the Lotus & Water lilies.
This one decided to rest on a dried Lotus stalk.

Have a wonderful day.

Michelle Alton 		  Terrific capture, Nancy. I have seen thousands of dragon flies, but never saw one eat anything! But that explains why they hang out near water!
