This is the same dragonfly from a previous in-flight shot At that time I thought it was a Calico pennant. Based on comments from readers I now believe it to be a Halloween pennant.
I think dragonfly wings are so unique!

This Male Red-winged Blackbird was very cooperative and perched where I could get a decent shot off.
One of the few birds I can ID without a problem :)
What beautiful wings on both. I haven't seen nearly as many red wing blackbirds this spring as usual.
ReplyDeleteYour winged captures never cease to amaze me! These are both spectacular. Wow!
ReplyDeleteExquisite detail - both in the bird..and the dragonfly!

ReplyDeleteI encountered two red winged blackbirds recently. Didn't have my camera. That'll teach me to bring it with me all the time!
