This shed dragonfly nymphal skin is on the side of the shed at the camp. I did not notice it until now but it could be several weeks old. If anyone knows the family or further ID (Libellulidae, possibly) please let me know. The extremely long legs seem characteristic. http://www.flickr.com/photos/92981528@N08/9420049895/ The strange thing is the shed is 80' from the lake, the only water anywhere nearby. I usually find these on the rocks along the lakeshore (although I seem to find fewer now than I did when young). Everything I read says the nymphs crawl out of the water a short distance before the adult emerges. But would one crawl 80 feet? Nancy
