Tiger Spiketail Dragonfly Amazing Egg Laying Method

You'll see why its called a "Spiketail" - This is the secretive and seldom seen deep forest dwelling Tiger Spiketail dragonfly laying eggs in a small seep from an underground mountain spring that makes for a great birdbath and perfect habitat for these amazing dragonflies. Sightings are rare in the true mountains like these Great Smoky Mountains at almost 4 thousand feet elevation.
