In Flight

Damselflies and dragonflies abound in the wetlands. Apparently the difference is that the dragonflies have horizontal wings and look like helicopters. There were hordes of blue damselflies but they are never still ... except when they are mating. A pair landed on my hand and formed and reformed little hearts which I thought was quite appropriate.
