Blue Dasher (Pachydiplax longipennis)Observer
jeremyhussellDescription
Collected from underneath an Eastern Kingbird perch. Wide shot for size comparison with other species in collection. These ones are the smaller, much more abundant ones. Possibly Blue Dasher? Or I may be mistaking the upper wings of Meadowhawks for a different species.

Northern Broken-Dash (Polites egeremet)Observer
damusDescription
Flying around another skipper, which may have been a female of the same species, posted in her own observation (see last image). My best guesses would be crossline or long dash, but I'm not great with skippers (yet!).
I'd appreciate it if you can point out any helpful ID characteristics for this species if you post an ID!

Originally thought Dun (seemed really dark) but now I'm seeing colours and pattern that perhaps are tawny-edged?

I thought Indian Skipper, possibly the same one I photographed in the same area, but iNat suggests Tawny-edged which was also around Marlborough.

Check out the aquatic insect scampering up its leg with malice intent!
I saw this behaviour twice when I was there. The darner would just burst into the air and easily shed it. Not a problem for this powerful dragon I shouldn't think...
