Anax junius Green Darner Dragon-fly
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragonfly
Here again is an example of Nature in Harmony in a Urban Garden. The Balance is self sustained for most part. Dragon-flies are perfect in the yard as they eat large amounts of mosquitoes. Because there are no insecticides here the Dragon-fly can survive to reproduce to have more mosquito eating creatures around. In the water there are fish that eat Mosquito larva as well. so do the Dragon-fly larva. However the fish eat Dragon -fly Larva also.
