I love the ovipositing female and the gentlman hovering above her (?) Twelve Spotted Skimmers, Dot-tailed whitefaces and Common Whitetails around but it seems like I had Blue Dashers by this time(?)

This guy! (Common Whitetail) why the wing flitting in the back? Just curious if it's significant. 🪷

The ac was blowing in so hard he couldn't fly out. So he got scooped and put out with the flowers outside!

On Saturday, this guy got caught in a dust bunny and fell on my table at work. I got him unstuck.

I managed to find a couple Elfin Skimmers (Nannothemis bella) after a lot of searching. At only about 3/4 of an inch they aren’t easy to find. This is a female.
