Winged Wonders

There were a large variety of dragonflies and other winged insects around the campsite, but most dragons were quick and I didn't get to shoot many. Here are a few different species I managed to shoot.




And then there were a pretty good number of bees and wasps, which, I didn't really wish to go too close to. Here's a carpenter bee at its usual spot in the morning.


And a species of wasp, digging into the earth, probably that's where it resides.

Great shots of the dragons! I love to shoot carpenter bees and that's how I find them...on bamboo poles and iron rods jutting out of concrete.

These are such amazing shots - I love the close ups of the dragon flies :)

Thanks both of you for your wonderful comments! I admire carpenter bees too although I rarely see them, but always prefer to keep a distance :)
