Field Notes

Description:

Related spotting here: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/57646024 I realize these are captive, but they go with the story of my previous spotting. A swarm of flying ants came out of the ground and Darners came from everywhere to feed on them! My mom swooped a female (all green, left in photo) and I managed to catch a male (on right, small amount of blue on center of abdomen.) Don't worry, the red is left over from a Mourning Cloak that once emerged in the enclosure. Lol
