The most common type of Dragonfly around here, it seems.
Grassy, wooded areas, pretty much wherever there's plenty of flying insects.

I just found this picture: http://www.gc.maricopa.edu/biology/aznat...
Ours are definitely the same...Blue-eyed Darner.
Just did. Yes, I think it is. I guess I'll just Google 'dragonflies' and see what happens.
I think this is the same dragonfly that I am trying to ID in my Unknown Spotting yesterday. Did you see it?
Cool capture, love the eyes.
