| Dragonflies and damselflies are truly amazing insects. They often have bold colors, even in temperate regions, where so many other animals come in shades of brown and beige. Dragonflies and damselflies remind me of Miyazake cartoons, because he uses them to illustrate places untouched by industry. I am still learning how to identify these two insect groups, so identification help is appreciated. |
