Dragonflies copulating?

[MiLK_MaN]

I was out watering the plants this afternoon, when something massive flew past me and ended up landing on one of my garden stakes.

So off I rushed to grab the camera as you do, and took a few happy snaps. Are they doing what I think they're doing?

Woot woot. Dragonfly porn.

That's hardcore, dude.

Mmmmm....sexy.

69'ing. At least one of them is giving a little foreplay before intercourse.

Look at the wear and tear on that lady dragonfly's wings. She's done this before!

Do any Australian dragonflies migrate? I didn't know any in the US did until recently.
