Dragonfly perches


Someone placed sticks near the Bluebonnet Nature Center for dragonflies to sit on. That's an interesting concept; might have some application in gardening if one could encourage dragonflies to hang around for pest control. The dragonflies have a good field of vision from these perches above the grass and weeds. They sit and watch for prey, zip off after it, and return to the perch... interesting to watch.
