Sparkling Jewels

I spent the day with some of my aunts and uncles today at my uncle's farm. It has a small creek running through it. I was really excited to take pics around it, even though my uncle warned me about the venonmous water snakes! Luckily, I didn't see any snakes, but I did find this Ebony Jewelwing. It's the only black-winged damselfly. My pic doesn't really give it justice. The green was so beautiful!

Thank you so much for the wonderful comments and faves for my Baby Blues pic!!! :0) :0) :0)

Today is my Day 150! Time has flown by! :0)
