Dragonfly Days of Spring?

It's been a hot spring so far...  A very odd year so far, the Dragonflies of Autumn are here in the spring, they arrived a week ago and have been ridding the farm of the typical spring scourge of Black-flies and Mosquitoes that plague the area.  It's almost Memorial Day and we have hundreds of Dragonflies that we see normally in August congregating in the yard and fields by the hundred.  Don't get me wrong we're pleased to see them they seem to be keeping the bugs in check along with the Mosquito Magnet it's been a fairly good couple of weeks. Sorry no Dragonfly pictures, they won't stop long enough...
