Four Spotted Skimmer
Hi bug lovers,
Your site is amazing. I’ve spent quite a bit of time there today, looking at pictures and I am not a bug lover usually . I am, however, fascinated by dragonflies, but know very little about them. I was trying to identify this one and didn’t have any luck finding it on your site. However, I found through Google images that it is likely a Four-spotted Skimmer, (Libellula quadrimaculata). Is that right? I thought you might like a few images just in case there aren’t any on your site. Four-spotted Skimmer … Cheers and keep up the good work.

Hi Sandra,
In trying to verify that your image was in fact a Four Spotted Skimmer, we happened upon this wonderful Dragonfly site: the Iowa Odonata Survey.
