Exotic Dragons
Dragonflies can be found in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and colorful markings on their wings and bodies. The exotic Odonata family Darner and the family Clubtail are characterized by clear wings, delightfully patterned bodies and, for some, unique abdomen shapes. Species of these families tend to be more rare than others and therefore more difficult to locate and photograph.
The following photos capture some of the more exotic species of dragonflies.
