Anax junius
Large dragonfly. Caught in spider's web, I released it but injured. 76 mm (3 inches) at the very least. Wingspan 80 mm (3.1 in.) Beautiful colors. This photo has NOT been colored enhanced.
Meadow on our property (2-3 acres)
Photos 1 and 2 - after releasing from spider's tangle. #3 - hanging there. Looking at me. Like take the photo quick and get me out of this mess. And third photo looks animated not real to me! An amazing sight!
