Dragonflies and DamselfliesDragonfly
I found this very friendly fellow one morning in my back yard of Strongsville, Ohio, in June of last year. He was just sitting there, clinging to some grass. I went inside to get my camera, and he allowed me to get within inches of him to take some incredible close-ups. Eventually he tired of my attention and flew away, but I was left with about 20 amazing photographs. These are actually scaled down, the originals that I have are double the resolution.
Your Dragonfly is a Saddlebags in the genus Tramea, but we are not certain of the species. We really consider currency when posting images, so we are very happy your image was taken in June, even though it was last year.
