Macro Monday: Widow Skimmer (Libellula luctuosa)

The widow skimmer (Libellula luctuosa) is one of the group of dragonflies known as king skimmers.
This species is found commonly in muddy substrates, or still bodies of waters such as ponds, lakes, streams, and creeks.
They are predators that prey on other insects such as mosquitoes. They catch their prey using their legs and use their fangs to bring prey into their mouth.
