Female Eastern Pondhawk - Erythemis simplicicollis

One of the more common dragonflies here. Neat sexual dichotomy - the females are bright grren like this, and the males are solid blue ! The immature males start out as green, and as 'teenagers' are about 1/2 and 1/2 !!

Actually, we think you have something even nicer here!

We would suggest that this is Erythemis vesiculosa - Great Pondhawk! Check the guide and see what you think.
