Friendly gal on the wing

A few evenings ago, I was in the back yard after supper, putting water on plants, seeing what I could see. As I walked along a garden path, a bright green dragonfly flitted by. Ah, an eastern pondhawk (Erythemis simpliciollis). I smiled. 

A few minutes later, something whooshed right past by my left ear. I GRINNED.

I'd been side-swiped by that dragonfly!


While I watched, she landed on a nearby rock. With my phone, I got some pictures. She was so friendly that I....
...stuck out my hand......AND SHE LANDED ON ME!
What an awesome moment! Ain't nature just grand?
