Pondhawk or green darner .......
....... I had posted an initial shot of this odonata earlier and then never got back to posting the rest of the series. Looking back at it now, I am not so sure my ID as a green darner was correct. The more I look at it
the more I am wondering if it might be an Eastern pondhawk. With a new emergent the colors can sometimes be deceptive. Any suggestions would be welcome.
There is a second image (a bit different angle) in the comments below .
