Blue Dasher
Who's the most dashing dragonfly at the pond? Maybe the Blue Dashers, at least if you're 1 of these Blue Dashers. Besides the light blue pruinose that goes almost to the end of the abdomen, these gentleman warriors will definitely fight for the honor of their ladies. They're even known to fight other blue dragonflies, though that's usually considered to be a case of mistaken identity; incompatible anatomy prevents maybe dragonflies from breeding outside their own species.
