Sometimes, there is no bird to be photogaphed. Then there are smaller flying creatures around. This tiny dragonfly-related Bluet was spotted in a regional park in Minneapolis in a hot summer afternoon. It is only about 1.2 cm from head to tail. I have to use two extension tubes attached on my macro lenses to get a large enough image. As you can imagine, I was on my belly the whole time I was photographing. Sorry that I do not know the exact name of this Bluet.
