Description
March 26Benden is driving me insane. It has occured to him that perhaps the pixidragon is a tropical species, and so we find ourselves in southern callifornia, examining the exotic plants for signs of the creature.
No luck yet(of course.) but I've stumbled across a pair of spotted drakes. I've always liked these little dragons, the male is brightly colored to attract attention, while the female matches the plants around her. Another tiny species, perhaps two inches tall, the male being a little larger.
I've found myself thinking of my mother's stories a lot on this trip, and this pair reminds me of her tales of a 'bird' that is so in love, should it's mate die, the 'lovebird' would die as well.
Ah the stories of our youth... onward now... the pixidragon waits.

Those flowers are more impressive than the dragons, I think. How beautiful. The tails are also wonderfully shaped. Excellent job, as always.

They're a great color and the twisting effect is very graceful. You should do a closeup of the flowers.

great job!! the colors of the male are so...vivid! his eyes and speckles stand out the most to me, and i love how his cheek is squished up [heehee]. its so awesome how the 'female matches with its surroundings' and her wings look like the flowers. when the picture was loading, i jus expected her to be a little drab, just like some female hummingbirds, but she turned out to be a little different. i love it!

JessicaMDouglas In reply to Emh [2004-03-29 02:12:07 +0000 UTC]
*grin* well I always thought that the females could have a little color, if it fits the surroundings of course.
