Mt Toby Green-striped Darner - Aeshna verticalis

Mt Toby Green-striped Darner - Aeshna verticalis
Leverett, Hampshire County, Massachusetts, USA
September 13, 2009
Of the many darners I observed in the wetland, forest, and meadows in this area, this was one of the few that perched and even fewer that stayed put for photos. I just missed getting a pic of a pair in the wheel that I suspect was also this species. The only other darner I photographed that day was a Canada.
