After a lull, the four o'clock flowers have started blooming again. How fascinating it is to see Mother Nature's patterns on the petals. Every bloom of the same plant with a different signature style!!
I took this photo yesterday as I was watering my potted plants. It landed on a palm leaf but took off before I could get another shot. Certainly not the ones that I usually photograph, this one appeared to be longer than other dragonflies.
The usual ones are about this length. This was also photographed near the same spot a few months ago.
The white-breasted water hen is one bird that I see everyday. Here it is foraging in a puddle created by one of the sudden showers that we have pretty often.

Its funny that you see water hens every day, and I have never seen one! At least I get to see them on you blog!
Exquisite captures for the day! The dragonfly is awesome! Hope your week is going well!

Amazing detail on the dragonfly Kanak and the flowers are so pretty. Thank you for linking up to Nature Notes and for your well wishes ..Michelle
The flowers are beautiful, they look bit like Petunias, except for the long stamens. The new dragonfly is outstanding!!!! Marbled gold with wings of glass!!!!
What stunning dragonfly shots. I love all of the captures, from the flowers to the white breasted hen
Beautiful flowers and awesome dragonfly shots and I love the water hen. Lovely photos, thanks for sharing.
An enjoyable post as always Kanak. What a beautiful Dragonfly it is! Their wings always remind me of stained glass and your photo shows that very well. All the photos are lovely and as someone else said the pretty flower reminds me a little of Petunias.
The White-breasted Waterhen is very similar to our Coot, both members of the Rail family of course.
Please send some of that lovely sunshine our way Kanak :-)
Water hen? Very interesting! I love four o'clocks which here we grow as annuals from seed. Beautiful shots of the dragonfly!
