A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Erythemis simplicicollis
We saw this dragonfly clutching its prey and the area near the chestnut tree at the end of Wright's Bluff Nature Trail. Because of the color, I assume its either a female or young male. Pondhawks are known for their predatory behavior.
Forested trail near Lake Marion and cypress swamps
When we reached the meadow that is closed during migration season, dragonflies were buzzing overhead like helicopters in a war. It was quite spectacular!
