Unconventional wisdom rewarded

If you haven't read my earlier post about Conventional Wisdom (10/26/09), this one won't make much sense.

This morning I was trimming the spent flower stalks off the many aloes around the yard.  After our unusually rainy winter, there were a lot of them!  Of course, I left one - right in the middle of plain view.

Later, after lunch, I glanced out across the yard.  And there, on the very tip of the sole remaining dead aloe flower stalk, sat a lovely dragonfly.

Chalk one up to Unconventional Wisdom!
