I have watched them ... but from afar - like from inside the
slider! I noticed that they perch on the grasses and plants
that overhang the pond. Also noticed that they dip their
rear in the pond on occasion. Now I'll get closer and
maybe have one of them light on my arm or finger??
Thanks for info, folks!!

Nedra,
When their dipping their butts in the pond, they are laying eggs which sink
to bottom. Those that hatch are the little guys that can attach to very
small fish to feed from them. That part I try not to think about as I'm
watching their activities. I think they are a pretty addition to a garden.
