Swift Setwing


Swift Setwing

Dragonflies are one of the oldest families of insects known. Millions of years ago these guys had a wingspan of up to 2 feet. The Swift Setwing is beautiful but also a vicious hunter. Survival of the fittest proven out with these territorial critters as they eat whatever they can catch in flight. I enjoy photographing the odonates.
