[Odonata-l] [POSSIBLE SPAM] a *real* ID challenge

[Marion Dobbs]

I'll put in a bid for Macrodiplax balteata. I've spent a lot of time on the 
Florida gulf coast and have seen more Osprey than I can ever count, a whole 
bunch of fish, and reams of both balteata and berenice. Never all three 
together, but this dragonfly looks very familiar.
Check out some photos at http://ponddamsel.phanfare.com
Use the little magnifying glass icon to search on balteata; ignore the 
small, blurry images; go for the larger laterals; and see what you think.
