In their resting state...
by epickett

Here we see a family of YellowSides(Conveyance Scholasticus) huddling together for warmth. Currently in hibernation, soon they will be prowling the streets delivering their cargo hither and yon.

You have a good eye for composition, Eldred. And a way with words.

LOL...love the description. Love the angle in which you shot these three who were in hibernation at the time. ;-)

From what I understand their behavior is a lot like a dragonfly... fly, stop, fly, stop, fly, stop...

Nice capture of this wild(ride)life at rest! You do really have to watch out when their red wing flaps stick out - best to come to a full stop and wait them out, otherwise it can be very expensive!! ;)
