Megan is always surprised by how many dragon flies flock to me in the woods. I think they are attracted by all the mosquitoes that seem to be attracted to me. It's kind of neat when I'm paddling as I have all these dragonflies buzzing around me- I sort of feel like an aircraft carrier as they fly along beside me, occasionally landing for a rest on the deck of my boat. This one however felt my hat was a better place to rest!
Once we were hiking in New Zealand and tiny birds were following us, flying around us. We then realized that we roused insects that were well hidden in the soft ground.

How come we never see you paddling?! Do you just get in the kayak and go with the flow?!

Yeah, we have very few of me actually paddling and not posing.I do paddle- I promise! UGH, and sometimes we have to walk through the canal. I look happy but I am really not.(Image removed from quote.)
PS. Does anyone know if dragonflies are particularly attracted to the colour Pink?

I have no idea, but I do know that the march flies on Fraser Island (Queensland, Australia) are particularly partial to blue, and they can bite right through (blue) denim jeans
