Perched atop a water lily, this Dragonfly surveys the scene.The Blue Dasher (Pachydiplax longipennis) is a dragonfly of the skimmer family. It is commonly found in the US and is widely distributed across its regions. The body structure of the female Blue Dasher is peculiar, as their small abdomen makes the wings look longer than others, hence "longipennis" or long wings.
