A near perfect summer for dragonflies

From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

..."Most of our flooding and heavy rains usually occur earlier in the spring or summer like May or June, which is early for the dragonflies to emerge," said Holleback. "But the flooding happened at the end of July and early August when they were emerging. It makes sense that we just timed the dragonfly hatch to go along with the influx of mosquitoes this year."
