Dragonflies and Damselflies in the Quincy Basin

Went looking for Bumble bees, but the dragonflies and damselflies were out instead. It was a great day to see them. Spotted them around water that drains from the Columbia Basin Irrigation System.

[Find the red Dragonfly from a previous trip to the same trail.]
