TEXAS: Uvalde Co; Leona River at Ft. Inge Historic Park - male in flight -
September 27, 2009
Flight shots of these two bugs were very difficult to get, owing to them both
being consistently chased off by patrolling Common Green Darners, Anax junius,
and Blue-eyed Darners, Rhionaeschna multicolor. This is the only
one of about 20 flight shots that I took that was identifiable.
