The raptors were too high so i took some shots of the Dragonflys.
They are too small to auto focus with my 150-500 so i had to manual focus them.

Incredible, to be able to focus like that, love them all. The last one looks a bit like a helicopter.
Thanks Shorty

Great photos shorty! Do you know what sort of dragonfly it is?
Thanks, Dale and Elsie. I have no idea what sort it is though.

Those shots are amazing. Can't believe you took those with your big lens, just brilliant.
(is there anything you can't do?
Do you also speak 3 languages and play an instrument?
)

Amazing shots!
Amazing French!
the common name for this dragonfly is Eastern hawk so in some way you did find a type of raptor shorty. A synthorax without distinct colour pattern and forewings with no colour spots also helped.
See it! Hear it!
