My neighbors put up Martin condos. Then when they cleaned them they were full of dragonfly remains.

Back in '66 I was bow hunting in Wisconsin next to a swamp. Tree stand. In those days a wide limb was a tree stand. As it warmed the skeeters came out. Clouds of them. My bow was on my legs and the Sun was hitting it, and a dragonfly landed on it. Ok, that was something to watch as no deer were moving.

Pretty soon that dragonfly zoomed off, nailed a skeeter and in two heart beats was back on my bow eating the skeeter. It was a cycle of about every five minutes, zoom, bang and eat. Over and over for two hours.
