[Photography] Dragonflies and other Pond Dwellers
Sitting still at the pond, I could observe my surroundings being alive with all kinds of animals...
Center: dragonfly (infraorder Anisoptera, order Odonata). Top right: cross spider (Araneus diadematus) in her web with prey. Left: great pond snails (Lymnaea stagnalis)
Damselflies (suborder Zygoptera, order Odonata)
Mating
Great pond snails (Lymnaea stagnalis)
They keep the pond clean from algae. They can slowly move along the bottom of the water surface.
Have a great day, everyone, because just nice is not good enough! Take care! :-)

I like the blue ones... And not just because they are mating.
you must have more patience than me, dragon flies fly so quick I struggle to get shots of them
tip!
Thank you very much!
I guess I'm more lucky than patient ;-) ...I didn't have to wait long for them to sit still. For a mid-air action shot, while they are flying, I'd need a better camera.
You did great in flight shots are so hard to get I must try with my new camera
Wow, Look how these tiny creatures add beauty to our nature and play very important roles to maintain it.
Thanks!
Very true, every creature plays its role...
