On our recent visit to the Bug exhibit at California Academy of Science, we were amazed to learn the intricacy of dragonfly wings. Each little part plays a special function. After seeing this, I appreciate them a little more. I don’t know how I’d feel about seeing a close up of a cockroach anatomy however.

Beautiful!
So cool 😎
I wish I lived closer to the academy of science. It’s such a great museum! I’ve only been there twice.
It’s such a great museum to visit! We love going there except the drive going there and back poops us out.
I’m reminded of the expression “on gossamer wings”.
Wow Linda, I didn’t even know an expression like that existed. Nice…looked it up and it’s a great one.
Glad you liked it Esther. I remember seeing the poem years ago and now seeing dragonflies flitting around or at rest, I am reminded of the expression.
