Another early darter dragonfly

Lord Vetinari

Rescued this newly emerged darter dragonfly again from my small filter tank containing the main pond pump.
Placed it on a bonsai acer at the edge of the pond to fully dry out. It flew off about an hour later.
All shots Tamron 90 natural light.

Sweet Brian! How does everything pose for you so nicely from every angle? I mean I can not get these things to stay still for 0.000000005 seconds.

Thanks for the comments Phil and SB

SB - because this dragon was newly emerged it was not going to fly off until it had dried it's wings so it just stayed where I put it.
