I didn't see much for birds, but had a good day of odes and some butterflies as well. A Hackberry Emperor gave me nice views of both top and bottom side of wings.
Pipevine Swallowtails were abundant.
And now onto the odes--first the damselflies. Many Powdered Dancers were perched along the river's edge.
A Stream Bluet:
Dusky Dancer:
And just a couple of inches over on the same twig, a Blue-ringed Dancer.
Finally, two dragons. First, a Black-shouldered Spinylegs, a common river denizen.
And the highlight of the day for me, a dragon I've been after for a few years, a Dragonhunter. (Dragonhunter has been my screen name on several message boards for years, reflecting my interest in odes in general.)
