Final portrait of a dragonfly

This evening while hanging out at our neighbor's house this dragonfly decided to land on my leg and hang out. After it became clear he wasn't flying away with everyone looking at him I tried to motivate him with my finger, whereupon he crawled onto it. This became a novel moment and my wife grabbed the camera and I took some shots while he hung out. I decided perhaps he would like to go to the pond and placed him on a leaf, he promptly flew away, then crash landed into the pond and died.

I miss dragon flies. Never see them in the bay area.
Saw that coming though. In my experience unless they're about to die dragon flies are more likely to bite you than just chill on your hand.
