Maybe this is a sign that the end of the world in near? :main_lipsrsealed:

We were outside barbecuing the other day and a huge swarm of dragonflies were buzzing around our house. There had to have been thousands of them. I don't have a wide angle lens so I could only get a section of them at a time. There was a little Anole that who looked pretty excited out the sudden plague! (I don't think she knew that the drangonflies were bigger then she was, lol.)

:main_thumbsup: For sure! Luckily we're behind on rain right now, this time of year we usually get swarms of mosquitoes like that.

Cheers to that Jeanine! We have a purple flowering plant that attracts butterflies and dragonflies so they're around all the time just not usually by the thousands! I wish I knew what kind of plant it was, I'd plant them all over the yard.
