Yup, only one. I was just super excited to get as close as I did... had the little bugger been two feet lower in the small tree, it would have been better! I was surprised to see as many dragons as there were at Herman Park.

You are lucky, our Dragons are gone for the winter. It's gotten too chilly for them here; they left about a couple o weeks ago. : (

There doesn't seem to be any shortage of darners...the problem is they know NOTHING about posing for pics.

Good capture, Garret. How many drinks by the time you found this one?
