When neighbors around my home go on vacation travel journeys, some of them will allow me to care for their yards, gardens, pets and wildlife. This past week, I did this for 3 neighbors and with my own schedule, it has kept me busy. One of the families have a small pond with frogs and fish. Where there is a pond there are also always going to be Dragonflies.
*Note...all images were taken with a handheld Nikon D-90 camera with a 70/300 lens set on macro~
Green Darners...
Female and Male Whitetailed Skimmers~
The Green Frog was sitting in a smaller pool and I nearly missed viewing it from it's hiding amongst the pond reeds~
I hope that everyone has a very nice week and that you take lots of photographs to share! Stay Safe~
Cherish is my favorite word, and I cherish the ability of turning the routine into a beautiful moment.
Nature creates in me, a spiritual and meditative time to bring peace, harmony and balance, into an otherwise ordinary day~

Dragonflies After Sunrise~
I invite you to check out more 'Skywatch Friday' posts from around the world at:

Covered Bridge Road...one of my most favorite drives from Tingsgrove, into the "big city" The countryside is just breathtaking and many of my photographs have been taken along the roadside here.
The dragonfly...hmmm, there are very few types of dragonflies here and I am guessing to best of my ability that it is a White-tailed Skimmer, but if not, forgive and please, do correct me. Have a wonderful SkyWatch Friday and a very enjoyable and safe weekend~
* Oh and yes, for the bird watchers, there is a bird here as well, a female Cardinal, kind of tiny, but she is very well there;)
