metamorphosis

I had been at camp for a week and saw something I think is pretty cool. Each year, we have seen the discarded husk of dragon flies on our basement door at camp. This year, I took a second glance at the husk on the door and saw that the dragon fly was emerging. It didn't seem to bother it when I was opening and closing the door a lot. I took photos of each "stage" that I saw. I thought it was very neat. The whole time of observation was around 4 to 5 hours.

almost there
"Free, free, free at last....."
a little body stretching
spreading the wings
almost ready
After the last shot, I went back into the basement, but the dragon fly was gone. I thought it was pretty neat.
