Still no hummers.

Irwells, I have TONS of dragonflies b/c I have a tiny pond that I put in myself. Not only do they fly around the pond and nearby patio looking for flying bugs to eat, but they also lay eggs in the pond. The dragonfly nymphs feed on mosquito larvae in the pond. I still have mosquitoes but I'm sure I'd have a lot more without the dragonflies. One of my friends who got rid of her pond is putting in another one b/c she says that the mosquitoes have been unbearable since they got rid of the pond. I think it must be b/c ponds attract dragonflies. Plus, I just love dragonflies. Here's a fun pic that I took yesterday.

Hold on to her hat!
