Re: Costa Rica
I have never been able to convince my kids that dragonflies are anything short of dangerous, and now they are too grown up to take cute pictures. Nice job!!!
​
I'm not jealous at all! Did I tell you my daughter was an electronics technician in the US Navy? Off topic?
​
okay...

Re: Costa Rica
Me too, but I would add praying mantis and fireflies
​
... and walking sticks! All off the kill list.
​
I still let pretty much any bugs live except flies, mosquitoes and any bugs with nasty feet that are trying to rustle my food. Hang 'em high!

Re: I finally got back to my Costa Rica photos
Lucky for them that they are poisonous because they do look good enough to eat.

Re: Sunrise
his is a female Sympetrum corruptum. The tip of the abdomen is out of focus. My excuse is, "the wind was blowing".
​
You have no shame. It's clear that your pointing to that tiny blur was just a reminder of how close to flawless this picture really is. Now if you don't mind, I'll get back to counting whiskers behind the head of the insect.
