Dragonflies and DamselfliesMale Common Whitetail… though from the shot, I’m more inclined to say "Bluetail"
I found the ID for this one already.. it’s a male Common Whitetail. I know you already have this fella on your website, but I caught a surprisingly sharp shot of one today and thought I might send it in. He was buzzing frantically around my screened-in porch. After this shot, I caught him and took him out. He was very appreciative.

Hi Kelli,
Your photo of Plathemis lydia, a Common Whitetail male is quite dramatic.
