Dot-Tailed Whiteface Dragonfly

The cool, drizzly morning made this dragonfly (and his companions) sluggish and easy to photograph. This young male will lose all but the bottom spot on its abdomen and his gray-ish face will turn white as it matures, thus earning its common name. Photographed in the Trempealeau National Wildlife Refuge, Wisconsin.
