In Hand - Side view

Tail Close ups for identification.

Another typical resting on the rocks pose.

I think this one is my favorite find of the night. They are so beautifull. (most bluets are just black and blue, this one has nearly the whole rainbow, thus its name. Red/orange at the mouth then yellow, green, blue.)

I'm on the wronge side...it urks me. I wish I got a shot from the other side with the sun from the right way but he would not stay put as I moved.

And from above.

And the Swamp Spreadwing.This one would not sit still for a natural pose. And it was getting dark, I was getting tired and had run out of patience for slow sneeking.

Another really nice find of the night, and nice looking guy to. Hard to get a photo of due to the setting sun and their habit of staying over the water. Had to shed my shoes and wade to get some shots.

Thats all for now. Now I need to pack a bit, get a bit of sleep and hopefully leave befor noon tomorow so I can get it a tad of Odeing at the camp befor dark....and I need to get a new kayak paddle. Mind got lost in the shuffle back to me. *sad sigh* I could use a longer paddle but will miss the leash if I don't get it back.
Sleep? Whats sleep?
