I'm wondering how you know it's an elderly female.

I love dragon flies. They are such majestic, beautiful insects. Definitely one of my favorite insects, and this is a fine, fine photo of one. I hope she is comfortable.
Thanks,
Wayne

It is a nice macro shot. I like these insects too. And some are colored really nice.

Nice shot. I just watched a older movie called, "Dragonfly" with Kevin Coster in it.

Today, take a ride on Santa's Railroad car sleigh.

Lovely shot. I'm with Dot - how do you differentiate between ages and sexes?

How do you know, she is elderly? But I'm sure you answer this, in previous comments.

That's too obvious a solution for me, I'd never have thought of it!
