Within my city, there is a fairly large pond (about mabye 1/4 mile long).
This is where i am sure the dragonflies originate from. Ever since the
drought ended in california some years ago, it has stayed full of water
all year. It also has a nice collection of cattails, rushes, and willows,
and other plants that grow around the ponds here. I have seen many more of
those metallic blue and metallic green dragonflies though.
