When the dragonfly nymph has fully developed, it crawls out of the water and hangs onto a reed, a leaf, or any support it can find. There the adult insect emerges, leaving an empty nymphal case. This usually happens in the early hours of the morning when it is still dark. It takes several hours for the wings to dry out completely.

suelen estar fuera del agua
Si, encontramos un montón en el cauce del rio Guadalmina
Que chula! creo que no me he encontrado con ninguna aun. Deben de estar dentro del agua en rios o laguitos, verdad?
