I either have an immortal dragonfly or a series of genetically programmed ones that guard my Yukon [and all the other vehicles I’ve had over the last 10 years or so] every summer.

It [or its descendants] hover over and dart frantically around it all day.

If we drive away, it gets panicky but then waits in the walnut tree until we return.

If somebody else gets near the Yuke, they get dive-bombed.

I have *no* idea what the deal is with that thing....:)

I also have “guard carpenter bees” who just attack anybody who isn’t us...and even then, it took about 4 years before they accepted hubby as “mine”....;]

People freak out and won’t believe me when I tell them it’s all bluff.

They’ve got no stingers...just lots of bravado.

Our carpenter bees are really peaceful. Thanks for telling about the stingers. Thought they were flower-children types LOL!
