A RED DRAGONFLY!

Have you been in touch with nature lately? As urbanites, the common living creatures we often have the pleasure of meeting are those we classify as pests. Rats, cockroaches, house lizards and garden pests such as ants and bees. It is therefore very thrilling to be able to see some creatures we seldom have the privilege to come into contact with in an urban environment.

When was the last time you saw a dragonfly in your garden? And have you ever in your life seen a RED dragonfly? I have climbed hills, gone hiking and camping all over the country and have come across all species of creepy crawlies. Yet, the surprise is, this is the first time I have come across a RED dragonfly, and, in my garden at that! I quickly grabbed my camera and these are the photographs of a RED dragonfly taken on Thursday, 21 July 2011, Shah Alam.
