Insects and Spiders

Uh, Hello, Who Are You?

I noticed something odd behind a grass stalk hanging out over the water. I knelt to get a better look and got this shot. Could not tell what it was and could not get where I could see it from above or behind since it was hanging over the creek. Turned out to be a brand new species of dragonfly for me & I actually had the identifying marks in this shot. That dark circle on the wing is the spot that gives it the name. Playing peek-a-boo with me.
