Took a trip to Ashland, Ohio the other week and was able to squeeze in some time to photograph some Odes. It was a nice summer day and the damselflies seemed to be feeling frisky.
I also (of course!) had a mystery or two....
Here's the first one. It looks to be a female Aurora Damsel (Chromagrion conditum) but it is too late in the year by a couple of weeks (seen 21 July) and it doesn't have the usual spread-wing posture that this species is supposed to display.
The second isn't a very good picture, but you can get the pattern and the distinct orange coloration.

Chris,
You Aurora Damsel photo is too small for me to tell it for sure. I found several of them in PA this year, they were very hard to get photos of. Search my site for them at www.rlephoto.com
