(We have all kinds of aliens now.) <br /><br />I thought they were fascinating, especially when the bulls tried to attract females with their 'red gullet.' (Not sure about the correct team.) <br /><br />I was always careful when catching them, but occasionally I'd accidentally break off their tails, which would continue wiggling like mad after being detatched. Very curious thing to a 6-year old.<br /><br />I was also curious about dragon flies. We lived next to Oyster Creek. Swarms of dragon flies in our neighborhood. I learned how to catch them when they perched on clothes pins left on clothes lines. Sneak up on them from below and behind. Beautiful irridescent colors.Chuck Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13071028509093276285noreply@blogger.com
