Dragonfly

Trying my hand at dragonfly photography after seeing so many nice shots of them on 365. Can anyone tell me about this one? It was seen in Michigan.

Check out the common whitetail dragonfly - that may be who he is. The markings seem to match. Wonderful detail and color. They're fun to try for good shots - and sometimes stay put longer than my birds do!

And by the way, today I bought that new Stokes Field Guide you told me about - fabulous shots. Thanks for the information.

I got no knowledge about dragonflies but that one is very nice.

@milaniet So glad you like the Stokes Field Guide. Their photos and their detailed descriptions of each species are the best on the market.

I just saw a guide book to dragonflies the other day. It was small but had some great examples. You might look for that.
