LUCKY 13

Thirteen days after I filmed the dragonfly, I saw it in the very same spot on my morning walk. Wondrous. Or so I prefer to think because it could have been another individual of the same species. This strikes me as less likely than it being the original one because I have not noticed a dragonfly of any kind at this location between these two sightings. I have filmed dragonflies repeatedly reoccupying a particular position after an interval and lingering there up to minutes at a time, but never  this – a return visit a day short of a fortnight later to the very twig on which it had rested for between a mind-boggling 45 minutes and an hour.
