Perithemis tenera and Plathemis lydia
These two dragonflies were vying for top spot. The amberwing held it first, but the whitetail showed up and drove it off. Then the amberwing dive-bombed the whitetail until it was chased off. The two exchanged places several times, before the amberwing finally bowed to superior size and flitted off to another stick.
City maintained retention pond.
