Inadvertent

A brief stop at the park today with the thought of possibly catching an interesting photo of the geese. As I was shooting I noticed a couple of dragonflies and thought how nice it would be to catch them as well but figured they were too small and too fast to show up. Much to my surprise when I uploaded there they were looking like two little helicopters above the goose on the left with no attempt on my part at all!
This is awesome! And the geese don't seem to mind at all - well done - a fav for me.

Great capture! (All I could think of about this title was how we sisters "INADVERTE TLY" ended up in Hawaii!!🤣)

@summerfield Many years ago we 3 sisters would take an annual trip together. Once, the other two planned on visiting me in Wyoming before I offered input. When they arrived I mentioned that I had thought Hawaii would have been a good destination. After a bit more discussion it was determined that "WE COULD STILL GO!!"
With a bit of liquid incentive and an internet search for tickets and a room... We had to shop for matching bikinis!! (OK, not bikinis but matching suits!) Only one family member knew where we really were until we returned!!! And our story, as well as the "word of the week" was that we INADVERTENTLY ended up in Hawaii!! 🌴🌴🏖🌞

Sometimes you just never know until you see it large. It looks like those dragonflies are on a reconnaissance mission!
