Outdoor Wednesday continued

A White Corporal Dragonfly upon a rock makes me think of prehistoric drawings or fossils.
Today we saw this handsome Red-tailed Hawk on the power lines alongside a highway on our way home from grocery shopping.

I love the photos of the hawk, as well as the dragonfly. For some reason I just love dragonflies. My mom has quite a few photos of a red tail hawk that she saw perched outside near her deck. its really awesome.

Great photo of the dragonfly, you really caught all the colours there and lucky spotting to find a hawk willing to pose for you.

Beautiful hawk! I haven't been seeing any now that spring/summer is here. You got great shots of him. Love the dragonfly...one I've never seen. They do have a prehistoric look and the area where their wings attach always looks sort of "robot" like to me!

You're right. It does remind one of a prehistoric fossil. Excellent photos!
