A Dragonfly Hanging Tough

I was taking a few pictures of one of the Button Bushes on our place late this afternoon. As I was about to head back towards the house a dragonfly happens by. I hoped he would land close so can get a few shots of him. He obliges and I start taking several captures with my zoom since he is about eight or so feet from me. Just as I got about six or seven captures the wind shows up. I keep shooting thinking he will fly off anytime now. On top of that I have never seen one like him so I may not get another chance if he is not a native. He does not fly off and I am amazed at this since the wind was quite brisk. Below are three photos of this amazing little Dragonfly hanging tough!

This was before the winds showed up and got the party started.

First the wind blew this way..... — First the wind blew this way…..

I took the above pictures with my Canon Powershot SX10is
