A damsel at Fort Huachuca - Argia
Huachuca Mountains, Cochise County, Arizona, USA

Size: 5-6cm
I had to wait about 10 minutes for the sun to come out before I could shoot off a decent photo of this damselfly, but she sat there very patiently for me. I'm not too familiar with odonates, can anyone ID her?

Argia vivida, I think.
I'm no expert on Arizona odonates, but I believe this is a Vivid Dancer.
