Walking over to the farmers market this morning, I caught a glimpse of a dragonfly exploring the sun-exposed branches of a willow tree. It disappeared, but when I turned the corner I started scanning up high, looking for potential sites where it could have landed. I was about to give up, when my eyes caught the blue of the darner's eyes.
Blue-eyed Darner (Rhionaeschna multicolor) in Sebastopol on 17 May 2026.
Beautiful! Oh, the wonders of the natural world!
