Wandering Gliders (Pantala flavescens) are the most widespread dragonfly species in the world and are found on all continents except Antarctica. I was thrilled on Tuesday when one stopped wandering for a moment at Occoquan Bay National Wildlife Refuge and I was able to capture this image. According to Wikipedia, individual Wandering Gliders can fly more than 3730 miles (6000 km)—one of the farthest known migrations of all insect species.

I like the patterns on its body and wings. Amazing how they can fly such a great distance. 😊
Very Nice Mike! Glad you are still seeing Dragonflies and sharing with us. The very few I see lately are very skiddish and hard to get close to.
Wow! Never would have guessed that they could fly that far!
