Really pleased you liked this capture. Because I saw this spider from the top ~ I didn’t recognize it as being a Golden Orbit Web Spider at first. And I was just intrigued by the bright yellow ball in the midst of the wild grasses.
Thanks so much Sandra ~ The nymphs were so small that I initially thought they were very tiny seeds from the grasses. I was in both awe and horror when I realized they were nymphs ~ Baby dragonflies.
Thanks so much for featuring ‘Golden Dragonfly ~ Life and Death’ in Special Moments.
It was indeed a very special moment as the wind was blowing the Golden Orb so close to the lens of my camera ~ And my face.
But I think the really special moment was that split second when I realized that the ‘tiny seeds’ caught in the web were actually baby dragonflies.
Being captivated by the beauty of the Golden Dragonflies all through our summer ~ And then to see the demise of these baby dragonflies ~ Reminds one that beauty and life are so fleeting and so special.
