Description
Do you want to know where she lives? I added a photo of the "habitat" she lives in. She's a four-spotted chaser captured in the grass alongside this "canal". If you want to make macro's of dragonflies you first have to locate a good "dragon spot". Search for ditches, canals, brooks, (private)ponds, waterpools etc with reasonable clean water. There must be no campshot along the waterline, this is very important!! Dragons "hate" campshot. You will be surprised how much information you can get on the internet from dragon-forums about good "dragon spot". But if you live in the Sahara you have a problem :P.
Next time more about dragon-hunting.
