This article is not only amazing in itself but - if correct - would also explain one of the more bizzare of the birds' migration routes from India across the open ocean to Africa.
Sorry, Monarchs, it seems your reign is over - bring on the dragonflies then.

Thanks for posting this! The Globe Skimmers in the article are known as Wandering Gliders in the US and they have a penchant for parking lots; perhaps they are prospecting for ephemeral pools and parking lots look that way to a dragonfly?
