Specimen #01118, 10/13/2000

Wingspan: 5 inches

Composition: Teal niobium wire, copper wire, steel utility blades

Collection site: Blue Grotto, Iceland

Comments: The rigid lines of this dragonfly remind me of some sort of quasi-military aerial transport, although the contrasting teal and copper stand out too much for that.
