Like a thread loosened from the sky

Deep in the sun-searched growths the dragonfly
Hangs like a blue thread loosened from the sky. ~Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Silent Noon

A group of about 5-6 golden dragonflies were hovering around my plants at the back lane this morning.  It seems that dragonflies are extremely choosy and if you see dragonflies around, it is a sign that the ecosystem is in a good condition. One thing is sure, dragonflies are sensitive to pollution.  Probably I am doing something right in my back lane.

Petunias growing well in my back lane.
