A teneral male, perched over a blackwater stream, which makes the background very, very black! (Thanks to ode expert Carl Rothfels for correcting me on the gender of this one.)
An interesting Sandhills site with a Blackwater stream flowing out of an artificial lake. This is also a good site for Sparkling Jewelwing, but it was not photographed by me.
