You have probably heard of the popular book HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON...
But have you heard of HOW TO TRAIN A DRAGONFLY?.
Oh, stop rolling your eyes! You think they can't be trained?
Well, you are SO wrong...
My sister, Hilda, has a pet dragonfly.
And she has done a darn good job training it!!
Here, let me introduce you to Mr. Dragon
Mr. Dragon hangs out with my sister on a daily basis
Thus, while I stayed with her a few days
I had the opportunity to take some pics of him
At first I was shy about approaching him with my camera...
After all I didn't want him flying away!
So I took a photo from behind.
But, Hilda, said to him...
"Mr. Dragon, please turn and let my sister take some pictures of you!"
So he did. He turned and struck a relaxed pose...
Then Hilda said,
"Mr. Dragon turn a litte more, so she can see your face better!"
And he did. He turned!
And I said, "WOW, what big eyes you have Mr. Dragon!"
Hilda, applauded because he likes lots of attention...
And then she said, "Mr. Dragon... now strike a SUPERSTAR pose for her!"
And
TA DAAAAAAAAA!!!
He spread his wings and struck his best SUPERSTAR pose!

O.K. I know some of you might be doubting this story.
Although I don't see why- I never exaggerate.
Well, maybe just a little... sometimes...
But, really! There is a lot of thruth in this story!
This dragonfly visits my sister's patio everyday, and is used to my sister's company.
If it weren't so... how do you think I took these pictures withouth him flying away...
and WITHOUT ZOOMING IN !!!
Yeah, it's a pet dragonfly- Don't you agree now?
