True, it is not a spider...it has 8 legs, but no venom, and a single body...no sections and only 2 eyes. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I've decided to quit my job, drop out of society, and wear live animals as hats." | |||

oooooooh thank you for the pictures of the blue dragonflies. Love them. Don't you think there is something mystical about the blue ones. You are so lucky. Weird about daddy longlegs being rare for you. We have scads of them......and the Asian Ladybug invasion began here this weekend. Some have even caught rides into the house. They got sucked up by the vacuum this morning. You can see them swarming in the sunlight outside. Thanks again........good pictures of all your bugs. ve | |||

Love the blue dragonflies! Oh how I hate Daddy Long Legs. We had so many several years ago you couldn't walk without stepping on them. I swear, they chase me......This message has been edited.

Pretty pics! Those blue dragonflies look larger than the ones we have, zone9alady altho not sure how large they really are. The ones here are about 2" long. We have mostly the blue ones but an occasional red one. I love dragonflies because they eat those noxious skitters.
LOL Patty Louise! I don't like them much either, found a few in a pile of wood I was moving recently. Yuck. Lucky "I have always had an aversion to the concepts of in style and out of style." ~Rose Tarlow Inspirational pics: http://inspiration4u.shutterfly.com/ | |||

I don't mind the daddy long legs (harvestman) because I know they won't bite me. I don't mind the cellar spiders too much either, but anything else freaks me out.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I've decided to quit my job, drop out of society, and wear live animals as hats." | |||

Don't mind either the dragonflies or the daddy long legs. It's centipedes and some beetles that creep me out. | ||||

Great pics! You have pretty dragonflies. I just have "dark" ones...nothing pretty! Daddy long legs don't bother me either....unless one crawls around my neck & I didn't know it dropped down! We have them all over the place & especially in some trees. "The soil is the source of life, creativity, culture and real independence." David Ben-Gurion | |||

[QUOTE]Originally posted by vera ellen: oooooooh thank you for the pictures of the blue dragonflies. Love them. Don't you think there is something mystical about the blue ones. You are so lucky.[QUOTE] Either they are mystical or they can't see very well..LOL! The blue ones are the only ones that will actually land on my finger if I hold it out still when I am near them. I wish I had more Daddy Long Legs. They don't make webs or have silk so they are neater than spiders. I found one in the garage once, it was hard getting him out without him detaching his legs. Pattie, they chased you? They don't bite, I think they are cute. We have green and copper colored dragonflies, I don't think I've seen a red one! I found a few ladybugs with no black dots...are they the same insect? I don't like centepedes either. We have those huge millipedes too, 2-1/2" long and as big around as my little finger. | |||

Love the dragon fly. We have lots of Daddy long legs in Colo. I'll send you some I posted my dragon fly a while back. Couldn't believe it stayed so long to let me take a pic. Thans for sharing your pics. Love the Lady bug too. | ||||

YES!!!!! i really, really hate when I see a humongous Centipede in my house. It really creeps me out. They are huge with a million long legs and I am always scared to try and get them. I never see Daddy Long Leg spiders except when we go on vacation and I barely saw one lady bug all summer long.  I don't even know if I have seen Blue Dragonflies. I rarely see those either. When I was a kid, we called them "Dining Needles" I swear!!!SPRING HAS F I N A L L Y SPRUNG!!!!! | |||

That's funny Wavy, when we were kids growing up in Louisiana we called dragonflies "mosquito hawks" and we called Crane Flies, Daddy Long Legs. Whether You Think You Can Or You Think You Can't..... You're Right - Henry Ford | |||

I never saw a real Daddy Long Legs (Harvestmen) until I moved here. Whether You Think You Can Or You Think You Can't..... You're Right - Henry Ford | |||
