Dragonfly rescue and wash-up

I was cleaning my goldfish pond, when I spotted a dragonfly that had been sucked onto the surface of the water. I rescued it, placed it on the log, and it did a bit of a wash-up. Rather amusing!

Bit of a wash up and then the dragon fly flew away. Seems kind of late fro dragon flies. we still see lots of butterflies on warm days.

My wife has to do this for me when I fall into ponds! Nice close-up pix! W.C.C.

It looks like an Autumn Meadowhawk.
