30,000 Eyes Are Watching You!

I was up at my mothers 5 acres in Umatilla yesterday and brought the camera just in case. I looked over the flowers - nah, the fruit - nah, all the birds, ducks, chickens, sheep, etc. - nah. Just nothing appealed to me for taking a picture of. Then just as we were about to leave there it was. Right next to the car was a skinny white stick supporting a thin frail plant. At the top of the stick was a dragonfly just sitting there. It's eyes moving back and forth just watching us. I kept moving in and got within inches without the dragonfly even budging. Wow, I really liked the colors in this one. I'm glad it stuck around.
