Snaketail
I think the pale legs are enough to say Brook (Ophiogomphus aspersus) in Mass but I want to double check that.

 
Seems like you're right.
I looked at some other images of a Brook Snaketail and it appears your ID is right on. But I'll wait to see if you confirm.

Thanks very much for your help, Jason.
