I can't do much better than "some skimmer, maybe?" but if you step up
one level in Mark B's pages (click on the "odonata" link at the top
of the page) it takes you to a bunch of amazing galleries of "things
eating odonates." Here's the direct link:

Maybe Mark B. knows what all the odonates in those pictures are
already, but if not, there are enough ID challenges to waste most of
a morning on.
If nothing else, look at the gull-billed tern gallery (each small
picture at the page links to a gallery of photos) for some really
neat chase and capture photos.
