Water Lily and Shadow

Eastern Pondhawk on Lily Pad
I borrowed Ted’s Tamron 18-400 MM lens this morning and put the range flexibility to good use when I spotted an Eastern Pondhawk on a Lily Pad.
I got a decent closer image of the dragonfly and his shadow.
And a nice view of the scene without changing lenses or cameras.
Hole Punched Petals
I don’t know if the katydid was eating the Water Lily petals or was looking for the bug that did. Leaves and grass are their primary food source, but they will eat small bugs.
I didn’t realize this was the same flower a half hour later when I passed back by with the same attraction for it. The katydid had moved down to the lower petals with his knees showing, just left of center.

Water Lily and Greenery
There was a nice reflection of the water lily and the surrounding foliage, if a bit far out into the pond.

Newly leafed out trees were reflecting color into the pond, creating a path around the lilies.

This Lily outshines the rather ratty looking leaves around it.

Dappled sunlight highlighted this Water Lily, tucked in the corner of the pond.

I was delighted to find Water Lilies in bloom last week at a roadside pond.
Most of the flowers were clustered around the edges but a narrow strip of lily pads and one lone Lily have reached out into the middle of the pond.
