Blue Dasher Dragonfly, male.

Blue Dasher Dragonflies are widely distributed throughout North America and into the Bahamas. The males are easy to recognize with their vibrant blue color, yellow-striped thorax, and metallic green eyes. The adult dragonfly will eat nearly any flying insect, such as a moth or fly and mosquito. They are capable of eating hundreds of insects every day.
