This Twin-spotted Spiketail was patrolling low over the grass on the shady side of the house. I netted her, and as I have learned to do, dunked her in cool water so she would stay put while I photographed her. This does the bug no harm, just slows it down until it warms up again. This dragonfly is listed as uncommon in Northeastern Ohio.June 6, 2007 Twin-spotted Spiketail
