Hard to make our the patterns
Hard to make our the patterns on the wings but this appears to be Panorpa debilis based on the wing patterns, location, and season. It is less possible that this is a weakly-marked Panorpa insolens.

Yes, Panorpa sp.
Please be sure to crop your pics as close to "just the bug" as possible. Only you and the editors have the ability to view the full-size images. Everyone else is left looking at little bugs in a lot of unnecessary background. :)

Thanks!
