Common Archtail (1/12)

Odonata: Libellulidae

Nannophlebia risi  

I was sneaking up on a Stout Vicetail dragonfly perched on a rock in Cedar Creek when two tiny dragonflies I did not recognise darted about the creek in front of me.

Before I could get a decent photo, the Stout Vicetail chased them out of his territory.

I continued down the creek and came across the two dragonflies again. This time one of them perched on some vegetation and I was able to photograph my first male Common Archtail.
