Calopteryx maculata
A blue/green color dragon fly gadding about a small neighborhood lake in a suburb of Nashville, Tennessee. The wings are black. There were several of them flying about. I saw 8-10 of this type. .
Bellevue, Tennessee. Woodsy area with a small lake that has ducks and geese.
During this siting, I also spotted another species that was entirely black, except for one white dot atop its wings. That photo came out too blurry.
KeithRoragen,
Thank you so much for identifying this as Species Calopteryx maculata - Ebony Jewelwing! I am thrilled to know.
Good job! :-)
