Meet Gertrude, Heathcliff, Skeeter and Lorraine 2004

Gertrude and Heathcliff

Hello my name is Gertrude and this is my husband, Heathcliff.  Early this spring we scouted around for a special place to settle down and start a family.  Once my husband and I took a look at Joe's front yard, we just knew this was our home.  

I immediately fell in love with the surroundings.  Joe has a wonderfully spaceous area with minimal trees, so my family and I can swoop and glide.  After I spotted the small lake just across the road I signed the lease.  (Lots of dragonflies!)

We are so happy here at Joe's.  He has really made a nice home for us.  We especially enjoy the comfort of the natural gourds.  In addition, we have plenty of room to sit on our special perch.

Skeeter and Lorraine

Hello I am Skeeter!  I spoke to Gertrude and Heathcliff and they told me how happy they were at Joe's.  I wanted to move in, but there was no more available space in the front yard. 

However, I discovered there was a few vacancies in the back yard.  Immediately, my wife, Lorraine, and I moved in. 

We enjoy the same accommodations as Gertrude and Heathcliff, and we have enough room to expand.  Sometimes, the whole gang gets together for dragonfly casserole. 

Check out our living quarters below.
