Sometimes it is nice to broaden ones appreciation of nature; it is all too easy to become too focused on birding in Thailand with so many species to find; so whilst counting waterbirds at Muang Boran Fishponds on Saturday I found some time to try some photos of the dragonflies and damselflies that are so abundant there. I saw at least 4 species but only managed to get photos of a couple.

One species of bright yellow dragonfly was especially numerous and extremely active and unapproachable, leaving me with just one semi-okay picture, but another species was much easier to get close to and photograph.

Below is one of the better pictures I obtained followed by thumbnails of some others of varying quality.
