Calopteryx maculata
Blue abdomen and black wings. Male damselfly.
Sandy, spring-fed creek bottom in upland hardwoods with many beech and oak trees. Creek flows into bottomland hardwood forest, so baldcypress also present.
Males establishing territories for breeding. Saw a few females, but mostly males.
