Wondering Glider

Posted by lisaonthebeach on

This dragonfly was captured in flight, hovering long enough for me to snap his photo.

This species, from the genus Pantala, is considered the most widespread dragonfly on the planet, with good population on every continent except Antarctica (although rare in Europe). This information is gathered from Wikipedia on my iNaturalist app. This app is awesome and has helped me to identify seven types of dragonflies so far.

      Thank you Lola! I they were buzzing around and I had to just stand there and wait, and he stopped right in front of me for a moment!
