Swift River Cruiser on exuvia - Macromia illinoiensis - male

Swift River Cruiser on exuvia - Macromia illinoiensis - Male
Riverbend Park, Fairfax County, Virginia, USA
June 8, 2012
This specimen was clutching it's exuvia on a tree about four feet up and about five feet from the Potomac river edge on a wet flat slopping cove just South of the Whiskey Hollow run crossing. It was mid afternoon and the dragonfly flew off a few minutes after I found it.
