Mating Green Darner Dragonflies. Male is Blue(on the right). Green Darners are migratory like Monarch Butterflies. We saw our first flock at our place about a week ago. Found 8 mating pairs Sunday near Leroy, Mn. They will lay their eggs in water or in rotting material very close water. After several weeks the eggs will hatch into a predatory aquatic larva or nymph that will molt several times over the next 1-3 years and then emerge as a dragonfly.
