Observation details
Sharing some photos of adults feeding juveniles. A large downed tree branch in the river, by the tip of the first island closest to the boat launch, at one point was being perched by a total of 6 (mix of adults and juveniles). They would eventually separate into smaller sets within the same general area and a total of 11 were counted. The adults were prolific in finding dragonfly nymphs as I observed a pair of juveniles that received at least 6 deliveries within about a 20 minute time span. Their appeared to be at least 4 juveniles.
