The male Libellula needhami, Needham's Skimmer, is a red-orange skimmer found predominantly in the coastal regions along the Atlantic shores of the US. It's found in Florida about 10 months out of the year.
The female lacks the red-orange coloration but in the right lighting conditions she appears to be plated with gold.
Hi Tammy! Excellent! Very beautiful dragonfly, which reminds several of our European! Magnificent video, which shows well the complexity and the precision of the movements of wings! Best Regards, M.
RépondreSupprimerBrilliant video Tammy, something different and works really well, the shots are not too bad either. Keep up the good work.
RépondreSupprimerUne très belle série, avec une espèce qui ressemble à nos Crocothemis, et un gros plus avec cette vidéo, qui détaille le mouvement des ailes !
RépondreSupprimerHello Tammy!
RépondreSupprimerThat is very special post!
Superb photography of a dragon that resembles indeed one of ours in Europe.
The females also looks like it was dipped with gold in a certain light.
I think we can spend a life time admiring and studying them without ever getting close to a fair knowledge of each species nor their technology!
I enjoyed seeing the video again... many thanks to Brian, he can repeat this as often as he wishes! LOL!
Merci Tammy, les photos sont très belles, mais la vidéo au ralenti est grandiose. C'est tellement extraordinaire de voir ces techniques de vols, c'est presque un privilège de voir ça.
