Great behavior set Thang. I once had a similar occasion, except an unseen largemouth bass took the dragon on the bottom. The top dragon barely escaped being lunch.
Nice drama, Thang. To go from the dragon flies alone to the grebe attacking with 1000mm worth of lenses is really something. Thanks for making the day more interesting.

Great sequence here Thang... I'm guessing you saw it unfolding as the PBG acquired the target.
The "top" DF saw it coming too in #2... but not soon enough... the last two shots are awesome.
I've always admired your ability to find these kind of opportunities, well done my friend.

You gave me too much credit Kirk. Was photographing the Grebe family near by. Saw these three dragon flies doing their thing and started snapping away. The next thing I knew the parent popped up in the viewfinder out of nowhere....
