Stream Cruiser - Didymops transversa - Female
Quebec, Canada
July 17, 2007
This is one of the dragonflies that got me hooked into odonata. It flew to a piece of grass right in front of me and was very approachable. I have three different angles that help greatly with the identification.

Nice Find
Very nice find! I have yet to see one of these. The dorsal shot is a nice one.

If ID is already known you can place the photos directly on the species page found here. The ID request is for those that your not sure on.
