Dragon Fly

 For my next image in the significant 2024 series is a dragon fly.  I believe it's a Flame Skimmer.  We have a county park here in Green Valley called Historic Canoa Ranch.  The main attraction  on this historic ranch for nature photographers is the small lake.  The county has done a fantastic job of restoring this property and the lake and the area around it is real attractive habitat for wildlife.
