Toot

The so-called tandem flight is the name for a special behavior in dragonflies in which the male attaches itself to the back of the head (large dragonflies) or the front breast (small dragonflies) with its abdominal appendages in order to lay eggs together with the female. A process that is difficult to capture photographically - at least not with the clarity of the image that I managed to capture here.
