Odonate lord and master

What little remains of the stream below the millpond dam is yet ruled by the Dragonhunters. In the ongoing drought, there's still a plunge pool and a bit of current, but I now get into the stream's center without getting my feet wet, and from that vantage point, I can watch the Dragonhunters patrol the riffles in their eternal hunt for odonate prey, along with any other insect they can capture and subdue, as well as potential mates. Sometimes, these handsome creatures will even sit still long enough, as they survey their realm, for a photo op in great light.
