Komm Libelle, sag mir, wohin du fliegst....

Komm Libelle, sag mir, wohin du fliegst....
They are beauties.... but they are also fast-flying long-bodied predatory insects with two pairs of large transparent wings that are spread out sideways at rest. The voracious aquatic larvae take up to 5 years to reach adulthood.

Thanks Peter, I must say, I see them each year dancing around the pond, but one must be patient to photograph them...

Pam, thanks for your rectification, again something learned. You are right, but I leave the title - because "Banded Demoiselle, tell me where you come from" is not so poetic than dragonfly;-))

Eric, here, too, I was lucky: the dragonfly let herself be approached so that I could take the photos.
