  2. Kerri, awesome Dragonfly! I've never seen one like it. I'll bet Steve over at Shooting My Universe would know what it is.

    I'm glad your Mom is still with you this year. Your family has been through enough stress, that's for sure. Here's hoping she keeps doing well for as long as possible.

  4. We only get the big blue ones or the smaller red ones. And, I'm so glad your Mom is going ok. I survived a coma and know all about close calls and recovery.

  8. I've never seen a red dragonfly - brown, blue and green, but never a red one.

  9. Kerri, It is a male Calico Pennant. Males are always red when mature. Females and immature males are orange. Lovely photo of this little dragonfly too.

    So glad your mom is doing better, too! Only God knows the timing for our lives.... my neighbor that I'm caring for is under hospice care now - but we'll see - all in God's perfect plan.
