I am amazed you were able to get a shot with the dragonfly that is very hard to do I know I have tried and failed to take a selfie with them in it. I don't know why maybe because they are so hard to shoot, but they are some of my favorite subjects to shoot. But we also have 3 species in my area that are rare and only live in this area in about a 1.2 square mile radius.

Wow! That does sound rare!
there was a big thing over them because there was a group of people who wanted to create a lake called Mounds Lake, which was going to destroy parts of Mound's State Park (which is named such after the Earthworks) but environmentalist such as myself went nuts because not only would it destroy the habitat potentially killing them off, It would also flood the Rangeline Nature Preserve, this lake was also gonna sit on two former landfill sites that were packed down and leveled paved with pipes sticking out to vent the gasses the deadly potential of the combination got the other cities that would have been effected to vote with a BIG HELL NO. You wouldn't believe the people who want the lake still. Where we are building if it gets revived we would have lake front property and sell right away and move at least 10 miles outside the city limits.
