Why Frass?
This is a lovely image that would make a great addition to the guide. May we move it there?

Alll dragonflies are beautiful
I was cleaning out my older images, and these got caught in the sweep. As there are so many great pictures in the guide, I wasn't sure it was up to snuff.

Please move it to the level that seems appropriate.

Prince Baskettail
I'm fairly certain that this is Epitheca princeps. The twelve spotted skimmer has differant claspers and is thicker in the abdomen...
