Enallagma basidens
Double black stripes on the "shoulder" of the thorax make this species instantly recognizable.
Spied this one in an open field adjacent to a small artificial pond.
Most male bluets look all too much alike, requiring close-up images of their claspers at the tip of the abdomen to identify them with any degree of accuracy.
