Black Saddlebags Dragonflies

IMG_0599

   Lyndhurst and North Arlington are getting an influx of nifty bugs called Black Saddlebags Dragonflies (cool name!).
   The shot above was taken at Harrier Meadow yesterday afternoon, but the dragonflies have been seen in numbers at DeKorte Park as well this week.
   In fact, we hope to see a few on the midday guided walk on the marsh Discovery Trail today.   
   The real trick is to get them to sit still long enough for a photo.
