These gorgeous creatures are visible in many of the landlocked bodies of water here at the coast. I still stop and stare when I see one and if I'm lucky I get a decent photo.
A little female who visited my home many times last year. I was lucky she sat so still for me to get a nice close up photo. I misidentified her as an Anna's. I'll give this subject another go. Good example of a painting that just doesn't work.
