Dragonflies and DamselfliesAwesome dragonfly!
I was able to photograph this very patient dragonfly that was resting on the side of my house. My daughter and I had fun trying to identify it. We think it’s a paddle-tailed darner. Are we right? We’ve seen as many as 30-40 of them flying around the house at the same time! They are amazing to watch.
You have a great site!

Hi Jeannie,
We looked on BugGuide and have concluded this is one of the Mosaic Darners in the genus Aeshna.
