Back to the lake!

I claimed my repaired rowing shell today — http://365project.org/rhoing/365/2014-05-13 — and went to the lake. This damselfly was on the rocks at water’s edge. I conjecture that it’s a “Blue-fronted Dancer” (“Argia apicalis”).

Confirmed at BugGuide as a female “Argia apicalis” or “Blue-fronted Dancer”; http://bugguide.net/node/view/938620

Awesome capture Thom! The blue parts look like they are metal!

A very classy looking one, and I assume your rowing shell worked out fine
