Hi,
Through your website, I found my way to the bugguide and the excellent Texan Odonata site. So I could identify at least the better quality photos of Sundays trip to Aqua caliente, our oasis in Tucson, AZ. Here are two of them. While I’m at it, a lot of your palo verde root borers look either dead or very out of place – I just took this one, maybe you can use it.

Hi again Margarethe,
Both of your dragonfly photos are gorgeous. We have to admit, we often don’t have the patience or skill to properly identify Dragonfly species, so we are thankful you did the work for us. Thanks again for the photos of the Roseate Skimmer, Orthemis ferruginea, and Red Saddlebags, Tramea onusata.
