When mowing by the pond, I normally scare some critter or bird as I near the banks. You can see the frogs jumping into the water, the Red-winged Blackbird flies out of the nest made in the cattails or even ducks or Green Heron takes flight. This week I was disturbing the dragonflies, which were busy in mating activities all around the pond. I believe these little dragonflies are called Autumn Meadowhawk, but I know wildflowers better than insects so they could be some other species.
