Eclosion

These dragonfly nymphs have left their old selves behind and begun a new life as a winged insect. They've left the evidence (their exoskeletons)of their eclosion on the cinnamon ferns (Osmunda cinnamomea) near the lake edge.

They look a little creepy, but are empty, and nothing to be wary of.
