Backyard bugs provide photo opportunity

After a week of vacation, yard work and chores took priority today but that didn’t keep me from whipping out my camera.

We have had quite a lot of dragonflies here recently for some reason and many of them were hanging out on a neighbor’s slash pile (don’t get me started on that!).  While I don’t approve of his rubbish, at least it gave me a chance to snap some pictures today.

If anyone knows the specific type of dragonfly this is, please feel free to chime in and educate me.  They are very cool and these particular ones were very colorful and fun to watch.
