We watched the dragonflies at the cottage last week in amazement. Just before dusk on a hot humid evening I saw darting shadows on the floor of the porch where I was sitting reading. I looked out the window to see what it was. There were more large dragonflies moving around than I had ever seen in one spot before. By time it got just a little darker it went from hundreds of dragonflies to only a couple of shadows flashing past my window.
The dragonflies I saw are only one phase of the little things lives. It is a transformation that leads from an aquatic nymph stage which can last for years and years to the delicate stage of life when it takes flight for only a couple of months until it lays it's eggs and the cycle begins anew.
